tod: I would love to share an application which is really remarkable.. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Seldom do we see in the web really detailed and high resolution images of great works of art. There are some really popular and notable ones but there are also underrated ones but with amazing influence in art as well. One of the popular artists of the 1700s is William Hogarth. In Drawing: Hogarth, an App dedicated to the works of Hogarth, it reveals several drawings and etchings that he has done throughout the years. Hogarth is an English print maker, satirist as well as painter and his works have become the inspiration for the western sequential art. His work is notable to have comic like qualities, darkness, but with a notable attention to details due to his training in painting. --------------THE GOOD: Seldom do we see actual high res accounts of Hogarth's work since a lot of artists got into the style and many fakes appeared in the process. The app itself is quite ideal for personal studies, academic use and presentations. Use this application to use for your slide shows and you will love its amazing attention to detail. --------------THE BAD: Maybe the information could have been much more detailed across but it is more relevant for general art appreciation. Anyways, you can always search the internet for descriptions and interpretations for the works that he has done. --------------VERDICT: Drawing: Hogarth is a fantastic collection of amazing images both popular and rare that is available in high resolution. For that studying art history or for general art enthusiasts, this is a fantastic portable picture frame that will inspire you. =>>>>Application can be found on the following links : http://aram.is/hogarth <<<>>> http://bit.ly/HogarthApp
