Eleven (of 12) original antique prints by William Hogarth, Industry and Idleness
USD 371.34 USD
This set of prints is only lacking plate 11 which showed the idle apprentice executed at Tyburn. Despite Hogarth's obvious intention to highlight the benefits of a virtuous life, it appears that he took more relish on depicting the more sordid life of the idle apprentice.
