At Home with the Hogarths Talk by Val Bott

Talk starts at 7pm. House and museum open from 6pm for exclusive access.

A talk relating to our special exhibition: At Home with the Hogarths. Enjoy exclusive access to the exhibition before this talk by the curator

In this illustrated talk, local historian Val Bott will draw upon the research behind the At Home with the Hogarths special exhibition. Elizabeth Einberg’s catalogue of Hogarth’s paintings, published in 2016, provided rich detail about family members, servants and the Hogarths’ circle. Val will introduce the audience to these fascinating people with more detail and colour than could be included in the exhibition. At Home with the Hogarths is a free special exhibition running until January 2023.

Val Bott researched the friends and neighbours, supporting the displays seen in the permanent galleries refurbished in 2012 and for her Hogarth’s House book from Scala Publications.
