==18th and 19th centuries== {{main|Art of the United Kingdom}} In the 18th century, English painting's distinct style and tradition continued to concentrate frequently on portraiture, but interest in landscapes increased, and a new focus was placed on [[history painting]], which was regarded as the highest of the [[hierarchy of genres]],<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/art/art-features/10562014/Painting-history-Manet-on-a-mission.html |title=Painting history: Manet on a mission |newspaper=[[The Daily Telegraph]] |access-date=29 August 2017 }}</ref> and is exemplified in the extraordinary work of Sir [[James Thornhill]] (1675/1676β1734). History painter [[Robert Streater]] (1621β1679) was highly thought of in his time.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2008/aug/04/architecture |title=Sheldonian ceiling restored |newspaper=[[The Guardian]] |access-date=29 August 2017}}</ref> [[William Hogarth]] (1697β1764) reflected the burgeoning English [[Social class in the United Kingdom|middle-class]] temperament β English in habits, disposition, and temperament, as well as by birth. His [[satire|satirical]] works, full of [[black humour]], point out to contemporary society the deformities, weaknesses and vices of [[18th-century London|London life]]. Hogarth's influence can be found in the distinctively English satirical tradition continued by [[James Gillray]] (1756β1815), and [[George Cruikshank]] (1792β1878).<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/comment/personal-view/11202643/Hogarth-the-father-of-the-modern-cartoon.html |title=Hogarth, the father of the modern cartoon |newspaper=[[The Daily Telegraph]] |access-date=29 August 2017}}</ref> One of the genres in which Hogarth worked was the [[conversation piece]], a form in which certain of his contemporaries also excelled: [[Joseph Highmore]] (1692β1780), [[Francis Hayman]] (1708β1776), and [[Arthur Devis (1712β1787)|Arthur Devis]] (1712β1787).<ref>{{cite book |title=Britain in the Hanoverian Age, 1714-1837 |last=Newman |first=Gerald |year=1978 |publisher=[[Routledge]] |location=London |isbn=0815303963 |page=525}}</ref> Portraits were in England, as in Europe, the easiest and most profitable way for an artist to make a living, and the English tradition continued to show the relaxed elegance of the portrait-style traceable to Van Dyck. The leading portraitists are: [[Thomas Gainsborough]] (1727β1788); Sir [[Joshua Reynolds]] (1723β1792), founder of the [[Royal Academy of Arts]]; [[George Romney (painter)|George Romney]] (1734β1802); [[Lemuel Francis Abbott|Lemuel "Francis" Abbott]] (1760/61β1802); [[Richard Westall]] (1765β1836); Sir [[Thomas Lawrence (painter)|Thomas Lawrence]] (1769β1830); and [[Thomas Phillips]] (1770β1845). Also of note are [[Jonathan Richardson]] (1667β1745) and his pupil (and defiant son-in-law) [[Thomas Hudson (painter)|Thomas Hudson]] (1701β1779). [[Joseph Wright of Derby]] (1734β1797) was well known for his candlelight pictures; [[George Stubbs]] (1724β1806) and, later, [[Edwin Henry Landseer]] (1802β1873) for their [[Animal painter|animal painting]]s. By the end of the century, the English [[swagger portrait]] was much admired abroad.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://therp.co.uk/a-short-history-of-british-portraiture/ |title=A Short History of British Portraiture |publisher=[[Royal Society of Portrait Painters]] |access-date=29 August 2017}}</ref> London's [[William Blake]] (1757β1827) produced a diverse and visionary body of work defying straightforward classification; critic [[Jonathan Jones (journalist)|Jonathan Jones]] regards him as "far and away the greatest artist Britain has ever produced".<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/arts/critic/feature/0,1169,1469584,00.html |title=Blake's heaven |newspaper=[[The Guardian]] |access-date=31 August 2017 }}</ref> Blake's artist friends included [[Neoclassicism|neoclassicist]] [[John Flaxman]] (1755β1826), and [[Thomas Stothard]] (1755β1834) with whom Blake quarrelled.
