Hogarth's London - A Talk by Guy Rowston
Saturday 5 February
10.45am - 1.00pm (In person only)
William Hogarth drew a series of moral and spiritual narratives which are clearly set in London, whether the fashionable west end, the City or the squalid east end. So immerse yourself in the salons and back streets of Georgian London and meet its colourful and venal inhabitants.
Refreshments served from 10.50am and serving a light lunch after the lecture.
Guy Rowston is a qualified Westminster Guide and an adult education lecturer on various aspects of London's life and history. He is particularly interested in London's architecture. Guy is also a Southwark Cathedral guide, a member of London Historians and the Victorian Society. He studied English literature at oxford and has worked in theatre, televison and the arts.
Tickets: £9.50 (including lunch) which can be booked via Eventbrite or by contacting Kate Dean by email or telephone 020 7367 6724
