EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by William Hogarth, titled "Times of the Day, Evening" transports us back to 1738 and offers a glimpse into the bustling streets of a Georgian village. The print captures an array of characters and activities that make up the fabric of daily life in this rural community. In the foreground, we witness a weary family making their way home after a long day. The tired expressions on their faces tell tales of hard work and exhaustion. Meanwhile, two mischievous children engage in a fierce battle, highlighting the universal nature of sibling rivalry. The scene is set against the backdrop of a serene riverside with boats gently gliding along its calm waters. In this idyllic setting, an inn or tavern stands proudly as it welcomes patrons seeking solace from their troubles. Hogarth's keen eye for detail is evident throughout this piece as he masterfully captures not only individual emotions but also societal nuances. From his satirical depiction of bad temper to his subtle commentary on class divisions and urbanization encroaching upon rural life, every element serves as fodder for contemplation. As we delve deeper into this enchanting artwork, we are transported to another time and place - one where theater performances at Sadler's Wells Theatre or leisurely walks along canals were commonplace activities for those living on London's outskirts. Overall, Hogarth's "Times of the Day, Evening" engraving invites us to reflect upon our own relationship with time and how it shapes our lives within both
