2009 Festival: Drawing on the Imagination at Sir John Soane’s Museum
Workshop at the Soane
Join tutor Jane Bush for an introduction to Hogarth’s marvellous paintings in Sir John Soane’s Museum and his engraved compositions. Participants will use Hogarth’s work as a starting point for creating their own compositions in ink.
Among glories of the Soane collection are two series of Hogarth paintings, A Rake’s Progress and An Election. These represent two of the three surviving series of ‘modern moral subjects’ painted by Hogarth (the other is in the National Gallery, London).
