Hogarth Plate Progress Bridewell Harlots
EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Harlots Progress Scene In Bridewell" is a remarkable piece of art that transports us back to 18th century London. Created by the renowned artist William Hogarth, this illustration captures a pivotal moment in his series known as "The Harlots Progress". Published in London in 1833, this print showcases Hogarth's exceptional talent for storytelling through visual narratives. In this particular scene, we find ourselves inside Bridewell Prison, witnessing the consequences of the harlot's choices. The horizontal composition allows us to explore every intricate detail within the plate. Hogarth's masterful use of shading and line work brings each character to life with astonishing realism. As we examine the print closely, we can't help but be drawn into the emotions conveyed by each figure depicted. From despair and regret on the face of our protagonist to indifference or even amusement displayed by those around her – it is an evocative portrayal of human nature at its most vulnerable moments. Ken Welsh has expertly preserved this historical gem from Hogarth's extensive body of work. This print serves as a testament to both Welsh's dedication as a collector and curator and Hogarth's enduring legacy as one of history's greatest artists. It stands as a reminder that art has always been an essential medium for capturing society’s triumphs and tribulations throughout time.
