Welcome to Hogarth’s House

Hogarth’s House was built between 1713 and 1717 and from 1749 until his death was the country home of the great painter, engraver and satirist William Hogarth (1697 – 1764).

Today you can see the home he lived in, a large collection of his work and learn about the history of the House, its residents and the area.

The Hogarth Prize:

Winner of the Inaugural Hogarth Prize Announced

The Hogarth Prize attracted more than 1500 submissions from artists across the UK and its first winner was announced at the launch of an Exhibition of 70 shortlisted works at Hogarth’s House on July 28^th, 2026. 

Dr Perchard, a self-taught artist, received a £3,000 award with their work, Leviathan, and the opportunity to stage a solo exhibition at Hogarth’s House. A judging panel comprising of gallerist and artist Robyn Graham, painter Hero Johnson RP and artist and Hogarth Prize Coordinator Steven King, chose Dr Perchard’s work for its technical skill and innovative approach, along with its engagement with cultural conversation. 

Dr Adam Perchard said: “It’s hard to put into words quite how honoured and delighted I am to win the Hogarth Prize. As a self-taught artist, it means the world for my work to be recognised by such a distinguished museum – and the opportunity to have my first ever solo exhibition there will be life-changing.” 

The exhibition showcased 70 shortlisted works by 56 outstanding artists from across the UK, spanning painting, printmaking, photography, drawing and mixed media. 

The exhibition is now available to view through our Bloomberg Connects Digital Guide which can be found here.
