BURKE (Joseph) - CALDWELL (Colin). William Hogarth Paris, Arts et Métiers Graphiques, circa 1968. A major publication devoted to the engraved works of William Hogarth, a leading figure of the 18th-century English school. This publication reproduces the artist’s famous satirical series—*A Harlot’s Progress*, *A Rake’s Progress*, and *Marriage A-la-Mode*—which rank among the first major narrative cycles in the history of printmaking. The book highlights the critical power of Hogarth, a scathing observer of Georgian London society, whose influence extends from British caricature to the modern comic strip. Description: Large folio with an illustrated dust jacket. Numerous black-and-white reproductions. A sought-after edition from Arts et Métiers Graphiques.
