About this work

William Hogarth made this print in the late 1700s. It’s a single sheet with six small tickets used for charity events. Each ticket shows a different scene. This was part of Hogarth’s push to support hospitals and charities. The prints helped raise funds in a clever way. The tickets were probably sold to wealthy patrons. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more prints like this.
