Hogarth: Painter & Printmaker

Tate Britain is lending its collection of oil paintings by William Hogarth, one of the most important figures in British art, to Bristol Museum & Art Gallery this summer. From portraiture to satire to history painting; this exhibition will introduce the diverse range of subjects that were tackled by this iconic painter and printmaker. Included in the exhibition will be his well-known satirical prints from our permanent collection. This will be the most comprehensive show of the artist’s work ever in the South West. Bristol, home to Hogarth’s 28ft high Altar piece currently on display at St Nicholas Church, is proud to be selected by Tate as the only regional partner.
