EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1735 with this print from Mary Evans Prints Online. "Rakes Progress 6 (The Rakes Progress 6. Gaming house scene - a rowdy bunch)" transports you to a gaming house filled with a rowdy bunch of characters engaged in gambling and revelry. The scene is rich in historical detail, from the elaborate wigs and swords worn by the men to the lanterns illuminating the room.
At the center of the image is a group of men engrossed in a game of dice, surrounded by coins and playing cards scattered across the table. A dog lounges at their feet, adding to the chaotic atmosphere of the gaming house. Each figure is meticulously rendered, capturing both their individual personalities and their collective sense of mischief.
This print is part of Hogarth's iconic series "The Rakes Progress," which follows the moral decline of its protagonist through various scenes depicting his reckless behavior. In this particular plate, we see him fully immersed in his vices, surrounded by fellow rakes who are equally caught up in their own pursuits.
Whether you're a history buff or simply appreciate fine artistry, this print offers a window into a bygone era where indulgence and excess reigned supreme. Display it proudly in your home as a conversation piece that will transport you back to an age of decadence and debauchery.
