It looks at how artists have responded to two great, contrasting works, \u003ci\u003eParadise Lost\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003ePilgrim's Progress\u003c\/i\u003e; at Hogarth and Fielding, great innovators, sharing common aims; and at Wordsworth and Bewick, a poet and engraver, both working separately, but both imbued with the spirit of their age. A brief coda turns to a fourth relationship: writers and artists who collaborate from the start, like Dickens and Phiz, and Lewis Carroll and Tenniel. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSometimes amusing, sometimes moving, this is a book to pore over and enjoy.  The visions it considers link daily life to the universal, the passionate and the sublime.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Faber \u0026 Faber","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49403126284631,"sku":"9780571354115","price":10.44,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780571354115.jpg?v=1730482497","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/words-pictures-9780571354115","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
