MASTER of the Aix-la-Chapelle Altarpiece
MASTER of the Aix-la-Chapelle Altarpiece – William Hogarth was an English painter, engraver, satirist, cartoonist and writer. His work ranges from realistic portraiture to comic strip-like series of pictures called „modern moral subjects“, and he is perhaps best known for his series A Harlot’s Progress, A Rake’s Progress and Marriage A-la-Mode. Familiarity with his work is so widespread that satirical political illustrations in this style are often referred to as „Hogarthian“.
