From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Evening is a 1738 ink by William Hogarth, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
The painting depicts a lively scene of people gathered outside a house, with a woman holding a baby and another woman standing beside her. In the background, there are trees and a cloudy sky. The atmosphere appears to be one of social gathering and community. A notable detail in the painting is the presence of a sign hanging from the house, which adds to the sense of a bustling community. The artist's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and dimensionality in the scene. This painting is reminiscent of the work of Hogarth, William.
William Hogarth (; 10 November 1697 – 26 October 1764) was an English painter, engraver, satirist, cartoonist and writer.
