A Misconceived Approach to Hogarth,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Guess at the Rest: Cracking the Hogarth Code (Paperback)
Something's cracked here, but it's not the Hogarth Code. Hogarth probably did use Masonic symbolic materials along with heraldry, emblem books, conventional and unconventional Christian iconography as well as many other symbolic and expressive systems in creating the gloriously intricate pictorial language of his pictures. Elisabeth Soulier-Detis has studied Hogarth's Masonic context extensively, but the readings lack interpretative tact and do not significantly advance our understanding of the works. Further, the book is ridiculously overpriced on this side of the Atlantic.
