Beskrivning
En satirisk gravyr av William Hogarth som skildrar det kaotiska gatulivet i 1700-talets London under firandet av Oak Apple Day.
Night är den sista plåten i William Hogarths serie, The Four Times of the Day, publicerad 1738. Detta verk skildrar en kaotisk gatubild i Charing Cross, London, under firandet av Oak Apple Day. Hogarth använder sitt karakteristiska satiriska öga för att dokumentera oordningen i stadslivet, och kontrasterar folkets festligheter med stadens dystra verklighet.
Kompositionen är tät med narrativa detaljer. I förgrunden leds en berusad frimurare hem av sin kamrat, medan en nattkärl töms från ett fönster på övervåningen ovanför dem. Till höger brinner en brasa på gatan, vilket bidrar till känslan av kaos. I bakgrunden finns statyn av kung Karl I, som ger en känsla av plats, medan olika butiksskyltar och arkitektoniska element förankrar scenen i 1700-talets Londons specifika geografi. Hogarth använder mediet etsning och gravyr för att fånga gatans texturer, från lanternans flimrande ljus till byggnadernas grova murverk.
Detta tryck fungerar som en social kommentar till bristen på ordning i offentliga rum. Hogarth undviker idealisering, och väljer istället att presentera tidens grus och absurditet. Verket är ett utmärkt exempel på hans förmåga att väva komplexa moraliska berättelser till visuell form. Genom att fokusera på stadens nattliga aktiviteter ger han en motpunkt till dagsljusscenerna i resten av serien, och fullbordar sin granskning av Londons liv. Gravyrens tekniska precision möjliggör en hög grad av läsbarhet, vilket säkerställer att varje liten detalj, från uttrycken i figurernas ansikten till den specifika skyltningen på byggnaderna, bidrar till den övergripande satiriska effekten.

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.
