We're celebrating the Birthday of artist William Hogarth, who was #bornonthisday in 1697! Read @AestheticaMag & learn how artist David Hockney related to Hogarth's work, The Rake’s Progress, from our 2013 exhibition, Hockney to Hogarth. https://t.co/OcYbsBPkzm #PrintsofDarkness
@artisthogarth Why tweet a copy of Hogarth's Wilkes? It is so easy to find an image of his print on line, e.g., this one @britishmuseum https://t.co/6vAhHKvvEw
@Unefleurunjour And a great self-promoter and propagandist - plenty of modern parallels. Somehow he and his supporters managed to turn Hogarth's caricature of him into something positive - "Wilkes and Liberty"
Goya/Hogarth at @WhitworthArt gets glowing review in The @guardianculture:
'Goya's prints of war, madness and folly are founding masterpieces of modern art ... His nightmares were anticipated by Hogarth's ... groteque scenes ... This show compares these great printmakers.'
It’s National Dog Day! I hope all of you dog owners pamper your pooch extravagantly 🐶
Here is Hogarth’s dog. Held by the Tate gallery "Hogarth's pug dog, Trump, serves as an emblem of the artist's own pugnacious character." #williamhogarth #NationalDogDay #18thcentury

An Election Series - 'Though set in the fictional constituency of 'Guzzle-down', Hogarth's attack on the fatuousness and corruption of contemporary politics draws its inspiration from polling in Oxfordshire during the General Election of 1754’ #williamhogarth
@artisthogarth You can find Hogarth's original print of Wilkes (and many others) at https://t.co/PMYG8mxfgA. Spot the differences!
@artisthogarth Spot differences between Hogarth's print of Wilkes (below) and 19th-century copy (above). Bad copies harm Hogarth's reputation as an artist.
@artisthogarth Here is Hogarth's print of John Wilkes, for information about it, see https://t.co/pZpZhDnQDU
Hogarth's most ambitious portrait of children can be seen in Room 34. This self-portrait hangs in Room 10 of @NPGLondon. #GreatGetTogether
