EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Glimpse into 18th Century Satire This print by William Hogarth takes us back to the vibrant streets of 18th century Britain. Titled "Sr. Hudibras, His Passing Worth, The Manner How He Sally d Forth" it is part of a series of twelve large illustrations created for Samuel Butler's renowned work, Hudibras. The scene unfolds at a bustling market stall where men engage in lively trade and conversation. In the foreground stands Sr. Hudibras himself - a hunchbacked figure atop his trusty horse - commanding attention with his satirical presence. With biting wit and sharp social commentary characteristic of Hogarth's style, this engraving captures the essence of Butler's literary masterpiece.

As we delve deeper into this artwork from The Metropolitan Museum of Art collection, we are transported to an era where literature thrived alongside political satire. It serves as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with societal critique. Hogarth's masterful etching technique brings every intricate detail to life: from the expressions on people's faces to their animated gestures. This print not only showcases artistic brilliance but also offers us a glimpse into
