EDITORS COMMENTS
Engraving titled Sancho starved by his physician by William Hogarth captures the poignant and satirical essence of 18th-century society. Created by the renowned English painter, printmaker, and social critic William Hogarth, this artwork is a testament to his pioneering contributions in western sequential art. In this thought-provoking piece, Hogarth exposes the dark underbelly of medical malpractice during his time. The engraving portrays Sancho, a vulnerable patient at the mercy of his unscrupulous physician. With intricate detail and masterful technique, Hogarth conveys the desperation and suffering endured by Sancho as he is deliberately starved for profit. Through biting satire and sharp commentary on societal issues, Hogarth challenges viewers to question authority and reflect on their own complicity in such injustices. This engraving serves as a powerful reminder that even those entrusted with our well-being can betray us in pursuit of personal gain. As an artist known for his ability to blend artistic skill with social critique, William Hogarth's work continues to resonate today. His legacy as a pictorial satirist endures through pieces like 'Sancho starved by his physician, ' reminding us of art's power to provoke change.
