Wallach Art Gallery, Columbia University, New York: 15 September - 21 November 1998] ; "The reputation of William Hogarth (1697-1764) rests largely on his pictorial stories, a series of engravings that he called "modern Moral Subjects," the most famous being the Harlot's and the Rake's Progress. In this catalog, David Bindman works backward from Hogarth's reputation today--where he is seen by some as a conservative populist and by others as a political radical--and examines his impact on various artists over the past three centuries. Bindman also sets Hogarth's prints firmly in their historical context, discussing the artist's public and the different influences on his work, from Roman satire to the politics of the day. The result is an engaging and insightful portrayal not only of William Hogarth, but also of the middle years of the eighteenth century. Art lovers will enjoy this book, but so too will anyone with an interest in the literature and history of the mid-eighteenth century. " ; FINE. Book.

Hardcover. Condizione: Good. 2nd Edition. Two voll. Paris: Maradan, 1789. Second edition in French. Octavo. With 19 of 22 engraved maps and plates (lacking plates 9, 10 and 11); and 23 folding letter-press tables. Bound in contemporary mottled calf, gilt border to the front cover. On the spine, five raised bands with the title a…nd author gilt to morocco in the second panel, and number gilt to morocco in the third. Marbled end-papers. All edges of the text-block marbled. Missouri Historical Society bookplate to the front paste-down (with "DISCARD" ink-stamped) and their ink-stamp twice to the title page and elsewhere. Shelving ink-stamp (completed in graphite manuscript) to the verso of the front free end-paper. Hinges of vol. 1 spilt, with heavy wear to the extremities. Front board of vol. 2 detached, and its rear board nearly so. Tanned generally, with some soiling to the extremities. Occasional mild foxing. Scattered stub- and marginal tears to the folding plates, which are sometimes untidily folded. Nathaniel Portlock (ca. 1748-1817) and George Dixon (1748-1795) were English sea captains, explorers and maritime fur traders. They accompanied Captain Cook on the Third Voyage and undertook this expedition on the Queen Charlotte in the service of King George's Sound Company of London. Portlock and Dixon sought to establish a British presence in the region's fur trade, and more accurately to map and explore the Northwest coast and the Nootka Sound, in present day Alaska and British Columbia. The narrative consists mainly of descriptive letters written by William Beresford, who was a cargo officer on the ship. Dixon contributed valuable charts and appendices. This first octavo edition in French was preceded by a quarto issue, which, like the first edition, was printed in the same year. Howes D 365; Sabin 20366.
