1697 1764 1790 Act Iii After William Hogarth Beggar Opera
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to July 1,1790, during Act III of an opera performance. The engraving depicts a poignant scene featuring a beggar on the streets of London. Created by the renowned British artist William Hogarth, this artwork showcases his exceptional talent for capturing raw human emotions and societal issues. The composition is rich in detail and symbolism, inviting viewers to delve into its narrative. The beggar's worn-out appearance evokes empathy as he stands amidst bustling city life. His outstretched hand suggests desperation while also serving as a metaphor for society's neglect towards those less fortunate. Hogarth's mastery shines through his meticulous use of line work and shading techniques, bringing depth and texture to this remarkable print. The plate measures approximately 17 15/16 x 23 1/16 inches (45.5 x 58.6 cm), making it an impressive piece that commands attention. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are transported to a different era where art served as both entertainment and social commentary. It serves as a reminder that even centuries later, the struggles depicted here still resonate with our modern world.
