Title A name given to the resource An Election Entertainment Description An account of the resource 'An Election Entertainment' is the first in a series of four paintings by William Hogarth titled 'The Humors of an Election.' This series satirizes the rampant corruption of 18th-century British Parliamentary elections, specifically referencing the 1754 Oxfordshire election. In 'An Election Entertainment,' Hogarth depicts a chaotic banquet hosted by Whig candidates. The scene is suffused with disorder, and Hogarth provides a critical and humorous commentary on the political landscape of the 18th century via satirical art. This is an oil on canvas painting where there are many individuals situated around a table, performing chaotic activities. The room is full, and the overall theme is disorder.
