EDITORS COMMENTS
The Committee (Plate 10: Illustrations to Samuel Butlers Hudibras), 1725-30 (?): A Captivating Glimpse into the World of Eighteenth-Century Argumentation Step back in time with this photo print, showcasing 'The Committee' - a scene from Samuel Butler's renowned satirical poem, 'Hudibras. ' Transported to the heart of eighteenth-century Britain, we find ourselves amidst a heated debate within a committee room. The image captures the essence of intellectual discourse as men clad in elegant attire engage in passionate disputing. Their clothing reflects the fashion trends of the era, with gentlemen donning hats that add an air of sophistication to their appearance. The interior setting exudes historical charm, with its grand architecture and meticulously engraved details. This etching by William Hogarth masterfully brings Butler's literary work to life. Known for his ability to capture human nature through art, Hogarth skillfully portrays each character's unique personality and expression. As we observe this gathering unfold before us, it becomes evident that every member has their own agenda and perspective on matters at hand. 'The Committee' serves as a testament to both literature and visual arts intertwining seamlessly. It invites us into an intimate space where ideas clash and opinions are fiercely debated—a true reflection of society during that period. As you gaze upon this remarkable piece from our heritage collection at The Met Museum, let your imagination wander back in time—immersing yourself
