Beschreibung
Ein satirischer Stich von William Hogarth, der das chaotische Straßenleben des London des 18. Jahrhunderts während der Feierlichkeiten zum Oak Apple Day darstellt.
Nacht ist die letzte Platte in William Hogarths Serie „Die vier Tageszeiten“, die 1738 veröffentlicht wurde. Dieses Werk zeigt eine chaotische Straßenszene in Charing Cross, London, während der Feierlichkeiten zum Oak Apple Day. Hogarth setzt seinen charakteristischen satirischen Blick ein, um die Unordnung des Stadtlebens zu dokumentieren, wobei er das Treiben der Bevölkerung mit den harten Realitäten der Stadt kontrastiert.
Die Komposition ist dicht mit erzählerischen Details. Im Vordergrund wird ein betrunkener Freimaurer von seinem Begleiter nach Hause geführt, während über ihnen ein Nachttopf aus einem Fenster im Obergeschoss entleert wird. Rechts brennt ein Lagerfeuer auf der Straße, was zum Gefühl des Chaos beiträgt. Im Hintergrund befindet sich die Statue von König Karl I., die einen Bezug zum Ort herstellt, während verschiedene Ladenbeschilderungen und architektonische Elemente die Szene in der spezifischen Geographie des London des 18. Jahrhunderts verankern. Hogarth nutzt die Techniken der Radierung und des Stichs, um die Texturen der Straße einzufangen, vom flackernden Licht der Laterne bis zum rauen Mauerwerk der Gebäude.
Dieser Druck fungiert als Sozialkommentar zum Mangel an Ordnung im öffentlichen Raum. Hogarth vermeidet Idealisierung und entscheidet sich stattdessen, die Härte und Absurdität der Ära darzustellen. Das Werk ist ein Paradebeispiel für seine Fähigkeit, komplexe moralische Erzählungen in visuelle Form zu bringen. Indem er sich auf die nächtlichen Aktivitäten der Stadt konzentriert, bietet er einen Kontrapunkt zu den Tagesszenen im Rest der Serie und vervollständigt seine Untersuchung des Londoner Lebens. Die technische Präzision des Stichs ermöglicht ein hohes Maß an Lesbarkeit, wodurch jedes kleine Detail, von den Gesichtsausdrücken der Figuren bis zur spezifischen Beschilderung an den Gebäuden, zum gesamten satirischen Effekt beiträgt.

Artist Biography
William Hogarth
Hogarth invented the comic strip three hundred years early. A Rake's Progress (1733) and A Harlot's Progress (1732) are narrative sequences of paintings and prints that tell moral stories through sequential images, each one packed with visual detail that rewards close reading. The drunk in the tavern, the debtor in prison, the madman in Bedlam: each scene is a chapter. Together they form a novel in pictures.
He was born in Smithfield, London, near the meat market. His father, a schoolteacher, was imprisoned for debt when William was a child. The experience of debtors' prison appears throughout his work. He apprenticed to a silver engraver and taught himself painting by copying old masters and observing London street life with the attention of a novelist.
He was shrewd about money and copyright. The Engraving Copyright Act of 1735 ('Hogarth's Act') was passed largely through his lobbying. It gave printmakers legal ownership of their designs for the first time, preventing pirated copies. He was protecting his income: the popular prints were his main revenue source.
He painted portraits, historical scenes, and the extraordinary Shrimp Girl, an unfinished head study of a street vendor that anticipates Impressionism by a century. The brushwork is loose, fresh, and immediate. It does not look like anything else painted in the 1740s. He also wrote The Analysis of Beauty (1753), a treatise on aesthetics that argued beauty derived from serpentine lines, which was mocked but was not wrong.
He died in 1764, at sixty-six. He is buried in Chiswick, west London. His tomb has a modest inscription. His influence on British satirical art, from Gillray to Banksy, has no inscription and no end.
