A Rake's Progress: pl.7

William Hogarth

National Gallery of Art

The engraving depicts multiple figures in an interior setting. In the center, a woman reclines towards the left on a wooden bench or pew. Beside her, another woman assists a child. A child with curly hair sits nearby, interacting with the scene. To the right, a man gestures while a woman engages him. On the far right, figures engage in conversation. Household objects clutter the scene, with a wall and window in the background.
