The slide of a Hogarth etching in the Power Point presentation made me think about how incredibly tedious it must have been to do all that cross-hatching in the background. I imagine that it would have been fun to draw all those laughing faces but then – to do all those straight lines behind them? Tedium. Absolute monotony.This made me think about the point where I gave up on working through Lynda Barry's Making Comics book.To keep reading The Tedium Scale visit the Songs for the Struggling Artist blog.This is Episode 452Song: Everything Is BoringImage of The Laughing Audience by William Hogarth is from the 1730s To support this podcast:Give it 5 stars in Apple Podcasts.

In 1710, the British Parliament passed a piece of legislation entitled An Act for the Encouragement of Learning. It became known as the Statute of Anne, and it was the world's first copyright law. Copyright protects and regulates a piece of work - whether that's a book, a painting, a piece of music or a software programme. It emerged as a way of balancing the interests of authors, artists, publishers, and the public in the context of evolving technologies and the rise of mechanical reproduction. Writers and artists such as Alexander Pope, William Hogarth and Charles Dickens became involved in heated debates about ownership and originality that continue to this day - especially with the emergence of artificial intelligence.

Lubaina Himid talks to Ben Luke about her influences—from writers to musicians, film-makers and, of course, other artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped her life and work. Himid was born 1954 in Zanzibar and lives today in Preston, UK. Her paintings, sculptures and installations are an invitation to consider marginalised figures, communities and diasporic cultures, to expand the histories that frame our worldview, and ultimately to effect change. From the 1980s, Lubaina has been both artist and organiser, a prolific collaborator, and a crucial voice in establishing a platform for Black artists and women artists in the UK and beyond. Engaging directly with historic and contemporary injustice and structural racism, while relating personal and intimate experiences and feelings, and reinterpreting and reimagining Western art history, her work is rigorously critical and yet poetic, sensuous, humorous and often joyous. She talks about the early impact of Stanley Spencer and Bridget Riley, the inexhaustible influence of William Hogarth, her curatorial work of the mid-1980s and her admiration for her peer in the Black British Arts movement Claudette Johnson. She also reflects on the influence of writers including Audre Lorde and Essex Hemphill. Plus, she gives insight into her life in the studio and answers our usual questions, including the ultimate: what is art for?Lubaina Himid with Magda Stawarska: Another Chance Encounter, Kettle's Yard, Cambridge, 12 July-2 November; Connecting Thin Black Lines, Institute of Contemporary Arts, London, 24 June-7 September.

Politická satira, pouze psaná, ilustrovaná anebo čistě výtvarná je kategorie vzniklá velmi dávno a lidstvo provází zřejmě už od starověku. A pokud jde o tu výtvarnou, připomenout lze velkou pozdější postavu, jakou byl v 18. století tvořící předchůdce politické karikatury Angličan William Hogarth.Všechny díly podcastu Názory a argumenty můžete pohodlně poslouchat v mobilní aplikaci mujRozhlas pro Android a iOS nebo na webu mujRozhlas.cz.
(No, not that Hellfire Club.) The Loremen return for series 6 and it's a saucy start to the year. We travel to the county of Buckinghamshire to meet some rich and powerful men who are behaving disgracefully — what a twist! William Hogarth, Sir Francis Dashwood and The Notorious John Booth set up a secret drinking society in the 18th century. The first rule of the Hellfire Club was that you had to have been to Italy, and the second rule was that you had to be drunk. (A bar for entry that has been pretty much smashed by low-cost airlines and duty free.) From cavorting in monasteries to tangling with Satan himself, these utter legends lived by the motto, "Do what thou will!"

In this History of Prints (HoP) episode, Tru and I finish talking about the life and work of William Hogarth, the father of Western sequential art. We look at and pick apart three series: Industry and Idleness, The Four Stages of Cruelty, and Humours of an Election. Timely, no? Hogarth continues to point out society's faults and baser instincts. He never stopped trying to teach the masses about comportment and judgment. Episode image: William Hogarth (British, 1697–1764). Gin Lane, 1751. Etching and engraving. Sheet: 15 1/16 x 12 1/2 in.

In this History of Western Prints (HoP) episode, Tru and I begin to explore the life and work of William Hogarth, the first British artist featured on Platemark's HoP series. Hogarth, renowned as the father of Western sequential art, is discussed through detailed analyses of three of his best known series: A Harlot's Progress, A Rake's Progress, and Marriage A-la-Mode. The episode delves into 18th-century London's morality, capturing the societal and artistic context of Hogarth's work. Highlights include discussions on the intricacies of Hogarth's prints, his depiction of social issues, the impact of his work on English law (copyright laws finally established!), and his mixed successes in various art forms. This first of two episodes on Hogarth sets the stage for part two when we look at his images around elections in Enlightenment England.

In this History of Prints episode of Platemark, host Ann Shafer and subject matter expert Tru Ludwig explore the extraordinary life and legacy of Maria Sibylla Merian. Celebrated for her pioneering work on insect metamorphosis and her detailed illustrations of flora and fauna, Merian's journey took her to Suriname where she documented local species with the help of native people and slaves. Despite the societal constraints of the 17th century, she made significant contributions to both science and art, influencing future generations. The discussion also situates her achievements within the broader context of the Enlightenment and printmaking evolution, drawing comparisons with other naturalists like Audubon. The episode concludes with a teaser for an upcoming feature on William Hogarth, noted for his political satire. George Peabody Library, Baltimore, MD. Johann Zoffany (German, 1733–1810).

Vi börjar i kålgården i Humlegården och halkar in på civilförsvar och ministern Carl-Oskar Bohlin. Susanna har hittat en artikel om Elizabeth II som alltid sade "interesting" när hon satte punkt för ett samtal. Johan Har varit på grannpodden Stig och Cyril i otakt med samtiden, efter att ha gått vilse bland alla tjejer i kalasbyxor och yogamattor i Hammarby sjöstad. Birgitte Bonnesen döms till fängelse, men är det bra att hennes advokat är förvånad? Klarna får bannor från Finansinspektionen men spelar oförstående. Och apropå skandaler: sosselotteriet. Vad tror man händer om man ger någon kommission för att sälja prenumerationer på lotter? Att sossarna inte vill att den här frågan ska dyka upp är självklart, men är regeringspartierna verkligen så intresserade av den? Johan är tveksam. det fins för stora risker att det exploderar bakåt, när de lurade gamlingarna är bortglömda. Debatten mellanTrump och Harris visade att journalister inte begriper hur partiska de är och att Harris faktiskt hittat ett sätt att vrida lite av kraften ur Trumps händer. Detvar som när Göran Persson förvånades över att inte rå på Reinfeldt. Och den 9 oktober ska Johan få visa Barry Lyndon på härliga biografen Fågel Blå. Det glädjer honom mycket, eftersom han är en William Hogarth-fan. Och allt detta medan hantverkare väsnas på taket. Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/hakeliuspopova. Hosted on Acast.

Satt macht nur die Liebe. Igor Strawinskys Moritat um einen Wüstling nach den berühmten Kupferstichen von William Hogarth aus dem 18. Jahrhundert gelingt am Staatstheater Augsburg als zeitgemäßes Moralstück.
Laundress-turned-murderess, Sarah Malcolm horrified Georgian London in 1733 when she was found guilty of killing three women she worked for while they slept. For wealthy Georgians this was a nightmare come true: a servant killing the household they served. Sarah became a celebrity killer and was painted by none other than William Hogarth while she sat in jail.Anthony Delaney tells Maddy Pelling this dark history.Written by Anthony Delaney.

In the first of this new series of A brush with…, Yinka Shonibare talks to Ben Luke about his influences—from writers to musicians, film-makers and, of course, other artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped his life and work.Shonibare was born in 1962 in London to Nigerian parents and moved to Lagos in Nigeria when he was a child. He returned to London for his fine art studies at Byam Shaw School of Art and Goldsmiths College. He explores race, class and constructions of cultural identity through sculpture, installation, painting, photography, film and other media. His signature material is Dutch wax fabric, which he is able endlessly to repurpose and recontextualise. He chose this material precisely for its complex and loaded history: it was originally inspired by Indonesian batik, mass-produced by the Dutch and then sold to European colonies in West Africa. Dutch wax fabric eventually became a signifier of independence and culture in Africa and its diaspora. Through references to Western art history, film and literature Shonibare uses this textile to playfully, even provocatively, explore the validity of national identities and the cultures that inform them. He discusses his perennial fascination with William Hogarth and Francisco Goya, and his admiration for contemporary artists as diverse as Cindy Sherman, David Hammons and Paul McCarthy, who he describes as “Hogarth x100”. He explains his love of opera—the total artwork—and contemporary dance. And he reflects on the consistent environmentalist strand in his work. Plus he gives insight into his studio life and answers our usual questions, including the ultimate: what is art for?Yinka Shonibare CBE RA: Free The Wind, The Spirit, and The Sun, Stephen Friedman Gallery, London, 6 October-11 November; Yinka Shonibare CBE: Ritual Ecstasy of the Modern, Cristea Roberts Gallery, London, 22 September-4 November; Shonibare's public work Hibiscus Rising, commissioned by the David Oluwale Memorial Association for Aire Park, Leeds, as part of Leeds 2023, is unveiled on 25 November. Between April and September 2024, Shonibare will have a solo exhibition at the Serpentine Galleries, London. He will also participate in Nigeria's Pavilion at the 60th International Venice Biennale from April 2024. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The publication of Thomas Hutchinson's secret letters to London politicos outraged Massachusetts citizens, as Hutchinson advised the British establishment on how to suppress colonial dissent and insulted those who disagreed with British policy. Ultimately, when it was learned that Benjamin Franklin had leaked the letters, Franklin's reputation was ruined in England, and he became an undisputed revolutionary. But how did Franklin get the secret letters? Jeremy Bell, author of three books on William Hogarth, joins us to unravel this 250-year old mystery, and tell us about Franklin as an associate of Sir Francis Dashwood and other members of the "Hell-Fire Club" one of many stories that Jeremy weaves in "Ben Franklin's Sit-down Walking Tour of Boston," at the Bell in Hand. He shares some of this, as well as other enduring questions, and tells us his own favorite dramatic portrayal of Franklin, was in "Sons of Liberty," with Dean Norris from "Breaking Bad" as "Bad Ass Ben."
JOHN SAYLES chats to Paul Burke about his historical novel JAMIE MacGILLIVRAY, the dialogue of Peter Cooke & Dudley Moore, British grub, perspectives of history and historical fiction. JAMIE MacGILLIVRAY: It begins in the highlands of Scotland in 1746, at the Battle of Culloden, the last desperate stand of the Stuart 'pretender' to the throne of the Three Kingdoms, Bonnie Prince Charlie, and his rabidly loyal supporters. Vanquished with his comrades by the forces of the Hanoverian (and Protestant) British crown, the novel's eponymous hero, Jamie MacGillivray, narrowly escapes a roadside execution only to be recaptured by the victors and shipped to Marshalsea Prison (central to Charles Dickens's Hard Times) where he cheats the hangman a second time before being sentenced to transportation and indentured servitude in colonial America 'for the term of his natural life.' His travels are paralleled by those of Jenny Ferguson, a poor, village girl swept up on false charges by the English and also sent in chains to the New World. The novel follows Jamie and Jenny through servitude, revolt, escape, and romantic entanglements pawns in a deadly game. The two continue to cross paths with each other and with some of the leading figures of the era - the devious Lord Lovat, future novelist Henry Fielding, the artist William Hogarth, a young and ambitious George Washington, the doomed General James Wolfe, and the Lenape chief feared throughout the Ohio Valley as Shingas the Terrible.John Sayles is an American independent film director, screenwriter, actor, and novelist. He has twice been nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay, for Passion Fish (1992) and Lone Star (1996). He has written seven novels, the most recent being Yellow Earth (2020) and A Moment in the Sun (2011).RecommendationsJosé LatourMartin LimónJohn le Carré The Pigeon TunnelWalter MosleyFilm: Emily The CriminalDiana GabaldonMentions:Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee Dee BrownHoward ZinnThe Lady Vanishes Zadie SmithA Moment in the Sun - John SaylesJames DickieBruce SpringsteenBill ForsythProduced by Junkyard DogMusic courtesy of Southgate and LeighCrime TimePaul Burke writes for Crime Time, Crime Fiction Lover and the European Literature Network.

Marriage a la Mode II: The Tete a Tete works like a meme rather than just a painting. That's because William Hogarth was more than a mere master painter. He was a writer and satirist with an unabashed bawdiness and humor that made Hogarth an icon. In fact, his work punctuated a significant part of the social milieu to the point that "Hogarthian" refers to art done in his satirical style even today. Read LadyKflo's collected works.

The gin myth of “Mother's Ruin,” which was depicted in William Hogarth's 1751 print, Gin Lane, has colored the perception of alcohol consumption by women for nearly 300 years.

DescriptionEver wondered what is Neoclassicism in music? And how did Igor Stravinsky play his part? Join me, as we take a minute to get the scoop!Fun FactFrom 1948 to 1951, Stravinsky worked on his only full-length opera, The Rake's Progress, a Neoclassical work based on a series of moralistic engravings by the 18th-century English artist William Hogarth. The Rake's Progress flirts with the late 18th-century grand opera but with the hard edges and twists of the Stravinsky wit and refinement.About StevenSteven is a Canadian composer living in Toronto.

Versione audio: La scuola pittorica inglese, sviluppatasi nel Settecento a seguito della crescita industriale, economica, politica e culturale del paese, riuscì ad affrancarsi progressivamente dall'egemonia artistica degli italiani e dei fiamminghi. William Hogarth (1697-1764), pittore, incisore, nonché autore di un trattato di estetica, L'analisi della bellezza (1753), uno dei contributi teorici più significativi del Rococò, […] L'articolo Il matrimonio alla moda di William Hogarth proviene da Arte Svelata.

What is art? Throughout the course of human existence, critics, academics, and common people have all attempted to unpack the meaning and value of art as part of society, as well as its role as a reflection of the current discourse. Art can be political. It can be reflective. It can be a weapon. And it can be history in itself. In her latest piece for Good Beer Hunting, titled “Gin Lane vs. Beer Street — How One Artist Captured a Pivotal Century in Our Drinking History,” published on July 1, 2021, writer Courtney Iseman takes a look at how art has shaped the way we perceive and interact with alcohol from as early as the 17th century up to the present day, specifically focusing on 18th-century Europe. For our podcast conversation, we talk about how beer was positively perceived by the middle and upper classes of the time. Working-class people, meanwhile, faced hand-wringing and public outcry for imbibing what was once considered a cheap and debaucherous beverage: gin. Iseman shares where she found the inspiration to dive into this piece after seeing an exhibit of Dutch masters at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Calling the writing process a “fever dream,” she wonders aloud about the 18th-century artist William Hogarth's motives for creating the groundbreaking and not-so-subtle pair of prints that gave the piece its title. We explore how alcohol plays into class lines and how consumption habits have evolved over the centuries. We also look at how both alcohol and art can divide as much as they can unite. She describes how the story unraveled—and how there's still more to tell.

It is the mood music, the manipulation of information, the nudging of a population in a certain direction. Whether Hogarth's famous depiction of an English side of beef or Josef Goebbels' Nazi disinformation, propaganda has the power to move and persuade. As the Soviets proved, its influence extends beyond wartime and can control and direct citizens during peace time as well. From heroic statues to demonic posters, from the broadcasts of Lord Haw Haw to the uplifting speeches of Winston Churchill, everyone has used propaganda to spread their message and point of view. Often it is only when a leader kills himself in a Berlin bunker that the full scale of the lie behind the propaganda is revealed.

English artist William Hogarth's paintings were so detailed and clever they could be read like books. The Rake's Progress series of 8 pictures show the ultimate destination of a reckless life - the Bedlam madhouse in London. Just in case anyone was unclear each picture was accompanied by a poem capturing perfectly just how awful that destination was. Great painting met great writing and Thomas Rakewell's life remains a classic work to this day.
Since our last episode was a NinS installment, the most natural progression is to follow it with a SinN episode, and we've got a great one this week. Sometimes it takes time for art to inspire a composer, and this pairing was worth the two-century wait. In the mid-18th century, English painter William Hogarth created a series of 8 works entitled, A Rake's Progress; and not until the middle of the 20th century did Russian composer Igor Stravinsky write an opera inspired by that very series. We're very excited for this combination, and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did! Art: William Hogarth (1697-1764): A Rake's Progress (1732-34) Music: Igor Stravinsky (1882-1971): The Rake's Progress (1951) Listen to the great selections from Stravinsky's opera in this week's Spotify playlist!

Almost three hundred years ago, the English artist William Hogarth created a series of paintings called A Rake’s Progress, which tell the tragic story of a man whose life spirals out of control after inheriting an unexpected fortune. He leaves behind a fiancée, and it is her story of devotion that reverberates through Igor Stravinsky’s opera The Rake’s Progress and the aria “No Word from Tom.” In this episode, you’ll visit with Hogarth’s paintings, hear how Stravinsky captured the undying loyalty of the forgotten lover and get an inside look at how unexpected fortune and fame upended the family of Vivian Liberto and Johnny Cash. Yes, that Johnny Cash. And, yes, in this podcast about Igor Stravinsky. And here’s the best part: the incomparable Dawn Upshaw will sing it for you from the stage of the Metropolitan Opera. The Guests: Soprano Dawn Upshaw has performed The Rake’s Progress many times and says that some of her happiest moments on an opera stage were when she was singing the role of the devoted fiancée, Anne Trulove. Tara Cash is the youngest daughter of Johnny Cash and his first wife, Vivian Liberto. When she was growing up, everyone always wanted to hear about her father’s life. Now, she welcomes the opportunity to share her mother’s side of the story. Joanna Tinworth is the Curator at Sir John Soane’s Museum in London, where the original paintings, A Rake’s Progress by William Hogarth, have resided for nearly 200 years. Hogarth’s paintings are among the museum’s most popular exhibits. Michael Bragg is the Music Planning Associate and Librarian at San Francisco Opera. He gives lectures and talks about opera around the Bay area, and he loves Stravinsky because of the composer’s unique approach to blending old and new styles of music. Below is the first painting in Hogarth's series A Rake's Progress, entitled "The Heir." You can see the complete set of paintings here, courtesy of Sir John Soane's Museum.

Keturah discusses two forms of adaptation in this episode.Her first conversation is with tenor, William Burden, who chats with her about Igor Stravinsky and W.H. Auden’s adaptation of William Hogarth’s paintings, The Rake’s Progress. They go into detail about one aria in the piece, then speak about how text and music get to the heart of our emotional world.Next up is a conversation with two time Pulitzer Prize winning playwright, Lynn Nottage, discussing adapting her award-winning play, Intimate Apparel, into an opera of the same name with Ricky Ian Gordon. They go into what it was like to self-adapt, why the piece was tailor made for a musical adaptation, and what her experience of collaborating with Ricky Ian Gordon was like.Lynn Nottage - http://www.lynnnottage.com/William Burden - https://www.opus3artists.com/artists/william-burden/Igor Stravinsky - https://www.britannica.com/biography/Igor-StravinskyW.H.

Historically Thinking: Conversations about historical knowledge and how we achieve it
In 1696, Isaac Newton, then Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University, moved rather suddenly to London. There he took the position of Master of the Royal Mint, residing at first nearby the mint in the Tower of London. He would by the end of his life have spent more time living in London then in Cambridge. Yet historians have often been reticent, even embarrassed, to delve into the second act of Newton's life. After gravity, the calculus, and optics it all seems so pedestrian. Fortunately Patricia Fara, Emeritus Fellow at Clare College, Cambridge, has taken Newton's London life seriously. In her book Life After Gravity: Isaac Newton's London Career she unpacks Newton's other life: as a royal official, a courtier, a builder of institutions, a proponent and beneficiary of empire, and an acquirer of worldly goods. Along the way she shares such gems with us as the number of silver chamberpots Newton owned when he died (two); what Newton changed about Britain's money; his favorite book of the Bible (Daniel); where he invested his money; and his time in Parliament as Member for the University of Cambridge. And, connecting the various episodes of the book, is an analysis of a painting by William Hogarth, in which there are many Newtonian resonances.

Oliver Twist - Charles Dickens - Book 2, Part 2 Title: Oliver Twist Overview: Oliver Twist; or, the Parish Boy's Progress, Charles Dickens's second novel, was published as a serial from 1837 to 1839, and as a three-volume book in 1838. Born in a workhouse, the orphan Oliver Twist is sold into apprenticeship with an undertaker. After escaping, Oliver travels to London, where he meets the "Artful Dodger", a member of a gang of juvenile pickpockets led by the elderly criminal Fagin. Oliver Twist unromantically portrays the sordid lives of criminals and exposes the cruel treatment of the many orphans in London in the mid-19th century. The alternative title, The Parish Boy's Progress, alludes to Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress, as well as the 18th-century caricature series by painter William Hogarth, A Rake's Progress, and A Harlot's Progress. In an early example of the social novel, Dickens satirizes child labor, domestic violence, the recruitment of children as criminals, and the presence of street children. The novel may have been inspired by the story of Robert Blincoe, an orphan whose account of working as a child laborer in a cotton mill was widely read in the 1830s. It is likely that Dickens's own experiences as a youth contributed as well. Oliver Twist has been the subject of numerous adaptations, including a highly successful musical, Oliver!, the multiple Academy Award-winning 1968 motion picture, and Disney's animated film Oliver & Company in 1988.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for November 10, 2020 is: bailiwick • BAY-lih-wik • noun 1 law enforcement : the office or jurisdiction of a bailiff 2 : the sphere in which one has superior knowledge or authority : a special domain Examples: "Until his death in 1764, at 67, [William Hogarth's] soul resided in Drury Lane and Grub Street, the bailiwick of actors, tradesmen and engravers like himself." — Michael Kimmelman, The New York Times, 30 Nov. 1997 "Staging theater in unusual but thematically appropriate locations is nothing new to Seghers, who once … seated theatergoers in a barn to watch a young man's obsession with horses play out in 'Equus.' 'This is right in his bailiwick,' said John DiDonna, who chairs the theater department at Valencia College. 'Jeremy lives to do shows that are site-specific or environmental.'" — Matthew J. Palm, The Orlando Sentinel, 6 Aug. 2020 Did you know? The first half of the word bailiwick comes from the Middle English word for "bailiff"—in this case, a term referring to a sheriff or chief officer of a town in medieval England, not the officer who assists today in U.S. courtrooms. Bailiff derives, via Anglo-French, from Latin bajulare, meaning "to carry a burden." The second half of bailiwick comes from wik, a Middle English word for "dwelling place" or "village," which ultimately derives from Latin vicus, meaning "village." (This root also gave us -wich and -wick, suffixes used in place names like Norwich and Warwick.) Although bailiwick dates from the 15th century, the "special domain" sense did not appear in English until the middle of the 19th century.
As the ramifications of the US election are set to continue for weeks, where do we stand in the art world? We look at the economics and the response of artists and art communities over the last four years and into the future. We talk to Felix Salmon, the chief financial correspondent at Axios, about the economic situation and its potential effects; Carolina Miranda of the Los Angeles Times reflects on individualism and collective action in the cultural sphere; and the Mexican artist Pedro Reyes talks about his project in New York City, Mañanaland, timed to coincide with the election. For this week’s Work of the Week, Martin Rowson, a cartoonist for the Guardian and the Daily Mirror, among others, talks about William Hogarth’s Gin Lane (1751), drawing President Trump, and the power of satire to address moments of crisis.

Welcome to the Jo's Art History Podcast, a podcast which celebrates all things art historical every single day! On today's podcast, Jo sits down with Illustrator Nyassa HInde to discuss a topic close to her heart - PUGS! Yip, that's right! Today we track the development and representation of this popular little dog through three paintings by artist William Hogarth. Hogarth was a super star painter in the 1700s and was known for his love of the breed but, his inclusion of his pugs were not as innocent as they first seem. Join Jo and Nyassa as they discuss the history of pug representation, poking fun at the wealthy and just what exactly is pugnacious? Guest: Nyassa Hinde.

A series of short features made for Soho Radio. Each week we talk to a different person about somebody in the Spirit of Soho Mural. This week, the subject is William Hogarth and Dom talks to art historian and Hogarth's biographer, Dr Jacqueline Riding. Originally broadcast on The Soho Hour on October 4th 2020.
This week, in the aftermath of the killing of George Floyd, we talk about the history of black resistance in the US and how the art world can respond to this latest tragedy. As protests grow throughout the country, Margaret Carrigan, one of The Art Newspaper’s senior editors in New York, speaks to Spencer Crew, the interim director of the National Museum of African American History and Culture, about the museum’s Talking About Race online portal. Also this week, we pay tribute to Christo, who died earlier this week. With his collaborator and wife Jeanne-Claude, Christo most famously wrapped the Pont Neuf in Paris and the Reichstag in Berlin in coloured fabric. And in the latest in our series of Lonely Works behind the doors of closed museums, Caro Howell, the director of the Foundling Museum in London, explores William Hogarth’s portrait of Thomas Coram, the painting that is the cornerstone of the Foundling’s collection—which she now hasn’t seen for months because of the coronavirus lockdown.

“The painter must give a completely free rein to any feeling or sensations he may have.” So said the celebrated artist Lucian Freud. His biographer William Feaver tells Andrew Marr how Freud’s work revealed not only something about the subject of the painting, but also what the artist was feeling. The two are combined in a new exhibition of Freud’s self-portraits in which the painter turns his unflinching eye on himself. In 2006 the artist Humphrey Ocean started making a series of portraits of visitors to his studio. Using simple forms and bold colours the painter illuminated something unique about each person. Ocean is the RA Schools’ Professor of Perspective and his work details his observations of everyday life. The underbelly of everyday life in the 18th century is very much in evidence in William Hogarth’s work. As an exhibition at Sir John Soane’s Museum brings together all Hogarth’s painted series for the first time, the art critic Kate Grandjouan explains what he reveals about people from all strata of society, in a London devoid of morality.

“Children, my dear boy, children.” [GREE] When you glance across the Sherlock Holmes stories, there really aren't that many instances of children. Some of the tales are just not suitable for little ears, after all. But there were key instances in which children played a vital role in the plot or moving the action forward. We explore some of those, as well as the warning signs that you might want to spend a little more (or less) time with the young ones. It is just a Trifle...

Almost three hundred years ago, a woman called Mary Toft was interrogated a bunch of doctors in London. She was interrogated after having given birth to a litter of rabbits. Or so she claimed. But, in that era, one of the strangest things about the case wasn’t just the rabbits: it was that doctors — “male midwives” — were muscling into the giving birth business. Amelia Dale teaches at Sydney University and talked about Toft in her PhD thesis. Links from this episode: Learn more about Mary Toft here, or listen to the BBC’s take on her story. What Hogarth print where? William Hogarth was a visual satirist, who made fun of the scandal around Toft with this engraving: Songs from Midwives, Doctors and Rabbits: Ojos Del Sol — Y La BambaAkogare — Super Magic HatsCopza Luca — Adrian Simionescu and Orchestre Marin Ioan (Gajo Dilo soundtrack)Slip Away — Kim Boekbinder
In September 1726, a Surrey woman called Mary Toft claimed to be giving birth to rabbits. The case became a sensation which gripped Georgian England - but the real story may have been much darker.

Emily Knight talks at the Ashmolean Museum about eighteenth-century portraits of children. Throughout history we have attempted to capture the transience of childhood in images, whether through portraits painted in the eighteenth century or photos taken on a phone and shared on social media today. In this short talk Emily Knight takes us back to the eighteenth century, when artists including Thomas Gainsborough, William Hogarth, Joshua Reynolds, Henry Fuseli and George Romney were painting children’s portraits. Ideas of childhood had begun to shift in the era, which was reflected in the portraiture. At the time infant mortality rates were high, meaning parents felt an even greater desire to have an image of their child to capture those fleeting early moments. Emily shows how these ideas were reflected in the portraiture through recurring motifs like the butterfly. Emily Knight is a DPhil candidate in History of Art at the University of Oxford researching posthumous portraiture in the late eighteenth to early nineteenth centuries in Britain, considering the ways in which these works became a language for mourning and commemoration.

This year's Reith lecturer is Dr Nikolaus Pevsner, the German-born British scholar of history of art and architecture, and author of the county guide series, The Buildings of England (1951–74). In this series, Dr Pevsner explores the qualities of art which he regards as particularly English, as illustrated in the works of several English artists, and what they say about the English national character. In his second lecture, Dr Pevsner considers the 'Englishness' of the artist and satirist William Hogarth (1697-1764). He explores the characteristics which he says make Hogarth a particularly English artist, and argues that his work embodies the ideals of the Age of Reason.
