There were so many things going on in his images: from the action of the main figures, to the background artwork on the walls in his interior scenes, to the narrative devices he used in the composition of an image itself. <br /><br />This admiration for his work took me into the study of pictorial composition and formed a large part of my MA at Falmouth.<br /><br />Hogarth wrote in 'Analysis of Beauty' that the eye enjoys being taken on a ‘<i>wanton kind of chace</i>’, which comes with intricate forms in picture composition. Two of the best examples of this are his prints <i>Gin Lane</i> and <i>Beer Street</i>, both of which were created as an attempt to educate people about the evils of gin next to the comparative wholesomeness of beer. Both prints can be ‘read’ thanks to their careful composition, but perhaps more so with <i>Gin Lane</i>: <br /></p><p></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgWKv3J8TnDrBqcve0ccK1EWnhnfpMjNoS85VJLKEDTMeN2r1VpuzLBcuimiqMF1kYGpA6RHgXm4NQ-plb0FRB_UsVF1EZIPD0GPs6AGUWDtKQI-yBgvA8PBZPBVTygtpiPHERR9Z8m1zE_f8BdsbpjFcehyd3Pm4rCWO33tSuzqXBNXQG27Ck2ZKzz7oG/s730/T01799_9.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="730" data-original-width="608" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgWKv3J8TnDrBqcve0ccK1EWnhnfpMjNoS85VJLKEDTMeN2r1VpuzLBcuimiqMF1kYGpA6RHgXm4NQ-plb0FRB_UsVF1EZIPD0GPs6AGUWDtKQI-yBgvA8PBZPBVTygtpiPHERR9Z8m1zE_f8BdsbpjFcehyd3Pm4rCWO33tSuzqXBNXQG27Ck2ZKzz7oG/w334-h400/T01799_9.jpg" width="334" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">William Hogarth, <i>Gin Lane</i> (1750)</td></tr></tbody></table><p>As the viewer looks at <i>Gin Lane</i>, attention is immediately focused on the dishevelled figure of a woman in the foreground, who appears too distracted to notice the child falling from her arms, while on the left of the picture is a thriving pawnbroker's business. The lines of the building on the left all point towards the rioting crowd on the right, while the vanishing point for the crumbling buildings on the right lead the eye past a hanging coffin and to the ruined buildings in the far background. <br /><br />Leonardo da Vinci once commented on how to use vanishing points to draw attention to something:<br /><br /><i>(The artist) should make his viewpoint as far beneath the thing that he is portraying as it will itself be above the eye of the spectator when executed.</i><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"> - Puttfarken, Thomas, Discovery of Pictorial Composition (Yale University Press, 2000), page 87.</span><br /><br /><br />This method could have been intentionally applied to Gin Lane.

This could be a technique by Hogarth to make the coffin stand out to the viewer, as it sits just above the viewer's eye-level. This motif of death is continued with the woman being put into a coffin and a child impaled on a spear, indicating the descent into barbarity. I would argue that this is Hogarth’s way of including the passage of time within the composition. <br /><br />The fate of the woman in the foreground is indicated by the deceased woman in the far background and the whole composition can be seen as being a visual timeline.<br /><br />I thought this would be a relevant footnote to share here, as there are some overlaps between some of the things I'd studied with pictorial composition at Falmouth and this cover illustration. Perhaps it's not obvious to everyone looking at the finished cover illustration, but to me this reminded me so much of my studies of Hogarth. I thought it'd be a good moment to re-visit and share the work of one of my favourite artists and my studies of his work.<br /></p>Anyway I hope this has been interesting and thank you for reading!<br /><p></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghyENQrv2edh5v5BvR7OLajFYlXTWeUNtDPJPage5bX6DYjngbB1WPCC-Gf6WuRt47imINBchGZchnFtApOiBQiP15QdEX_nYSMispr9_XO5bSenG_vSRfeqHIH9GQuCju0fdDzYN7xwIzZDT7Hm_p_eeJNj1lnVcwv3Mr5XlauciCb-MZqo6u1SdUKYUy/s3264/IMG_20231028_122026605.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3264" data-original-width="1836" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghyENQrv2edh5v5BvR7OLajFYlXTWeUNtDPJPage5bX6DYjngbB1WPCC-Gf6WuRt47imINBchGZchnFtApOiBQiP15QdEX_nYSMispr9_XO5bSenG_vSRfeqHIH9GQuCju0fdDzYN7xwIzZDT7Hm_p_eeJNj1lnVcwv3Mr5XlauciCb-MZqo6u1SdUKYUy/w225-h400/IMG_20231028_122026605.jpg" width="225" /></a></div>Joannahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13039178599975546006noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2413278913234912816.post-40630876015644696882023-10-21T18:24:00.008+01:002023-11-23T21:34:18.338+00:00New etching edition - Haven<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhubCZPJwjGs6y8E6OGxaKGWGhoQygx4pdO26u2EQ_Zrs7rVowqoByJTcOsxQeTv5dzBZME6dIbBxXQrfJJEZWJzd3gCFuOAELxXramOgiJRiI1MQo6wM6XOMzpD8z7g92gxH5gevb3nRUCn7VXJPqktoYkkjcM-8_BZGmNQDGXYBR6l88EAFkP9D0ovNLj/s1200/HavenFirst.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="900" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhubCZPJwjGs6y8E6OGxaKGWGhoQygx4pdO26u2EQ_Zrs7rVowqoByJTcOsxQeTv5dzBZME6dIbBxXQrfJJEZWJzd3gCFuOAELxXramOgiJRiI1MQo6wM6XOMzpD8z7g92gxH5gevb3nRUCn7VXJPqktoYkkjcM-8_BZGmNQDGXYBR6l88EAFkP9D0ovNLj/w300-h400/HavenFirst.jpg" width="300" /> </a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <i>Haven</i> is the first finished etching print from a series of images I worked on throughout the pandemic.

you think you know all the attributes that make a book a book, turn
back to the gallery door and conclude your visit to this exhibition.</i></p><p data-block-key="b94a6"><i>If
you think there might be more to the seemingly familiar and ultimately
knowable book—one of the most innovative and adaptable technologies for
making and sharing meaning devised by humankind—then take a moment to
browse and consider the many wonderful, sometimes contradictory, and
occasionally confounding aspects of the book.</i></p><i>But Is It a Book?
is a choosable-path exhibition that invites inquiry into the nature of
material text, considering in turn the attributes that signal
“bookness”—format, shape, binding, pages, and text. You will see
examples covering the long arc of book history and book technology, from
a clay tablet made in the 3rd century BCE to audio- and e-books
manifesting themselves materially the instant you press “play.” But is a
clay tablet or an e-book really a book?"</i><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">(from exhibition text at <a href="https://www.lib.uchicago.edu/collex/exhibits/but-is-it-a-book/">https://www.lib.uchicago.edu/collex/exhibits/but-is-it-a-book/</a>)</span></i> <br /></div><p></p></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdg2JW3KTDrhbVU_58vblsEDi7EQO6KqxnnK463uZcbK1wWOJhTQnYjVvYqeTV4hY-G613XC99PY-PYQ-RMBdytr2F2SVAfJhzFMWVtAHv7tJklOE7zM0_U5_F37p3k6Cyeky9hWK3jZyrt0vNlY6q_ZhTLVi8qP4KLdcFuP73SRW7CPfxIidaz6WKRA/s4032/IMG_3159.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em;

It's lovely to see some of the pictures coming through on social media too and I hope visitors to the NBM enjoy looking at the artwork.<br /><br />I must give thanks here to the Imaging Services at the National Library of Scotland for their digitisation of the etched illustrations in <i>A Knavish Lad. </i>They took my etchings - which were a mere 15cm high - and created files of them with a resolution high enough that they could be reproduced at the size you see here in these photos. <br /><br />There is little chance I'd ever have been able to get such a high resolution of those etchings with my own scanner and / or camera, so a big thanks is owed to them for their help here.<br /><br />The Playhouse is on until Sunday 28th August 2022 at the National Building Museum, Washington D.C.

slower way: instead of working with a combination of hand-drawn line
images and Photoshop, I took the time to hand paint the entire piece.

closed, I decided to create a temporary exhibition space at home and
share it online.<br /></h4><p>
Seeing as there won't be any galleries open or art fairs happening for a
long time yet, I thought that making and sharing something like this
would be the next best thing and would make for an interesting alternative.<br />
<br />
Much of the work will be familiar to those of you who've been following
my work for a while, but there are a couple of unseen works in progress
too! <br /></p><p>The final result
was a 10 minute video and can be accessed below and at <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v%3DZC7g8-R_syU&source=gmail&ust=1616863279531000&usg=AFQjCNFTabH1mASbTq9Xe4zmKo363YTTmg" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZC7g8-R_syU" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/<wbr></wbr>watch?v=ZC7g8-R_syU</a></p><p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="402" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZC7g8-R_syU" width="486" youtube-src-id="ZC7g8-R_syU"></iframe></div><br /></div><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: courier;">I hope you enjoy the short video! <br /><span>

<i>Fighting the Monster</i> (above) was accepted for inclusion in this year's Annual
Exhibition at the Royal Scottish Academy, which I was delighted to learn
about. However due to the current global pandemic, the exhibition has
been moved online and will run until the end May 2020.<br />
<br />
It's a pity not to be able to visit the exhibition space itself and see everyone's work on display, so for now we all view the artwork from the comfort (and safety) of our own sofas.<br />

There are no known photos of the monkey, but this is how I imagine their home might have looked...</span><br />

The Misadventures involves embezzlement, a mugging on Calton hill, an illegal drinking establishment, a murder & a comedy cabby... Our edition includes an introduction by Jeremy Hodges and five new illustrations by Joanna Robson.</i></span><br />
