William Hogarth has been described as the father of English painting but over the course of his career he came into conflict with many people. In this talk we will explore some of Hogarth’s most high profile conflicts with contemporaries on everything from art theory to social campaigning and more.

John Collins is the Senior Manager for Historic Houses at the London Borough of Hounslow and has overseen Hogarth’s House since it reopened to the public after a major refurbishment in 2011.
