The analysis of beauty by
William Hogarth(
Book
)
161 editions published between 1753 and 2018 in 6 languages and held by 2,020 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
This volume, published in 1753, was Hogarth's grand treatise on beauty, design and taste and was intended to help educate the masses on how to perceive art. His most prominent idea is the line of beauty, which is an s-shaped line that can be seen?set inside a pyramid?on the title page. Hogarth's theory is that this line is what captures a viewer's attention and evokes a sense of grace and movement. Unfortunately for Hogarth, his book was largely lampooned by his contemporaries and critics, including Charles Churchill who satirized the work in his "An Epistle to William Hogarth."

Aestheticism in art by
William Hogarth(
)
11 editions published between 2012 and 2015 in English and Undetermined and held by 992 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
William Hogarth wrote his Analysis of Beauty in 1753, during the Age of Enlightenment. Through this captivating text, he tends to define the notion of beauty in painting and states that it is linked, per se, to the use of the serpentine lines in pictorial compositions. He calls it the line of beauty . His essay is thus dedicated to the study of the composition of paintings, depending on the correct use of the pictorial lines, light, colour, and the figure's attitudes. These timeless concepts have been applied by several artists through the centuries. Paintings from every period have here been chosen to support this demonstration. They allow us to explore the various manners in which beauty can be expressed in painting

Mark Hallett(

)
4 editions published in 2000 in English and held by 452 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"In this account Mark Hallett explores and explains the duality within Hogarth's work, situating both his exquisite portraits and history paintings and his searing satiric prints within the context of his times. In doing so he gives us a greater sense of the contradictions and complexities within eighteenth-century British society itself."--Jacket

Matthew Craske(
Book
)
2 editions published in 2000 in English and held by 347 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Taking a thematic approach to this quintessentially British artist, Matthew Craske introduces the reader to Hogarth's varied artistic production, including his series, engravings, portraits, and such major paintings as A Rake's Progress. He brings to life an artist who produced works aimed at fostering self-improvement--works in which vice can ruin the aristocrat as swiftly as the harlot--but also works of great humor. We meet an artist emblematic of his day and time but also utterly innovative and long-sighted
