1880 William Hogarth ART English Political Satire Hudibras Rakes Progress Hannay

William Hogarth was one of the most famous English artists of the 18th-century and his satirical cartoons appeared in comic-strips and other printed works for decades. His most famous works were short series of sketches that told moral stories through the lens of political satire – 'A Harlot's Progress,' 'A Rake's Progress,' and 'Hudibras.'
All three of these famous works, along with the rest of Hogarth's portfolio, are included in this late 19th-century London Printing edition, along with an introductory essay by James Hannay.
