The Company of Undertakers
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print created by the renowned artist William Hogarth in the 18th century. This engraving masterfully depicts a satirical scene that explores the concept of death, medicine, and profession during that era. In this intriguing artwork, Hogarth skillfully portrays a group of individuals involved in various occupations related to death and medicine. The central figure is Joshua Ward, an infamous quack doctor known for his dubious medical practices. Surrounding him are other characters such as John Taylor, Sarah Mapp, and many more who represent different aspects of the undertaker profession. Hogarth's attention to detail is evident through the inclusion of heraldic elements like coats of arms symbolizing heritage and lineage. Through satire and wit, he critiques both the medical field and those who profit from death-related services. This print serves as a historical document reflecting on 18th-century society's fascination with science, occupation, and mortality. It invites viewers to ponder upon themes such as ethics in medicine or societal attitudes towards death during that time period. As we admire this remarkable piece by William Hogarth today, it reminds us not only of his artistic genius but also prompts contemplation about our own relationship with life's inevitable end.
