How Long Is “A Harlot's Progress”?

In 1731 the artist William Hogarth produced a graphic series of paintings which lifted the lid on 18th-century vice and established his enduring reputation as a remarkable social satirist and the greatest British artist of his day. With an all-star cast including Toby Jones, Zoë Tapper, Sophie Thompson, Geraldine James and Richard Wilson, A Harlot's Progress depicts Hogarth's exploration of sex trafficking and debauchery in Georgian London. Struggling artist William Hogarth (Jones) is beguiled by young courtesan Mary Collins (Tapper) from their first meeting. But his subsequent pursuit of Mary during her descent into prostitution in London's shadowlands threatens to destroy his own career, health and happiness.
