Talk:A Harlot's Progress

message: "Throughout the series, those items on the viewer's right are the sitter's left, the sinister side, while those things on the viewer's left are the sitter's dexter side, and Hogarth divides good and bad on the left and right. "
Can this be cleared up, it's a little confusing (viewer vs sitter perspective)? I think the author is just showing off their latin. How about editing to something like -
"Throughout the series, Hogarth symbolically divides the pictures so good items appear on the (viewer's/sitter's?) right and bad items appear in the (viewer's/sitter's?) left. This follows an artistic tradition of relating the left to evil: the latin for 'left' is sinister." --mgaved 11:08, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure if that is even correct. In image 2, the only thing in Moll's right is the African boy, while most of the figures are on the left. I'm removing this until someone can replace it with verification from a third party.-- Aronzak (talk) 12:24, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

message: How do we know the woman in Plate 4 described as "African" is not (what is far more likely in 18th Century London) West Indian? Or is the author using "African" in a well-intentioned effort to avoid the "B" Word, or, heaven help us, the "N" Word? Just a question. Writtenright 04:15, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

message: The description of what's going on in the pictures is good, but often there are a lot of figures. Could the images include numbers or something? Alternatively, magnifications of the image could be used. -- Aronzak (talk) 12:13, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
