The Five Orders of Periwigs
EDITORS COMMENTS
by William Hogarth is a captivating print that offers a humorous and satirical take on the extravagant wigs worn during the late 18th century. Hogarth, an English painter and pictorial satirist, showcases his wit and artistic talent in this piece. The print depicts five different styles of periwigs, each representing a distinct social class or profession. From the towering "Lawyer's Wig" to the flamboyant "Macaroni Wig". Hogarth captures the essence of these fashionable accessories with meticulous detail. The intricate architecture-like structure surrounding each wig adds an element of whimsy to the composition. Hogarth's work often served as social commentary, and "The Five Orders of Periwigs" is no exception. Through his exaggerated portrayal of these elaborate hairstyles, he pokes fun at society's obsession with appearance and status. The print serves as a reminder that even in seemingly frivolous matters like fashion choices, there are underlying messages about power dynamics and societal norms. This particular print from Bridgeman Images allows viewers to appreciate Hogarth's mastery from every intricate line to vibrant color choice. It transports us back to a time when wigs were not only fashionable but also symbolic representations of one's place in society. Whether you're an art enthusiast or simply intrigued by historical fashion trends, "The Five Orders of Periwigs" offers both entertainment and insight into 18th-century culture through its clever satire and artistic brilliance.
