The first major publication dedicated to the important but underrated 18th-century British artist Joseph Highmore, whose works address themes of motherhood, abuse, abandonment, infant death and murder. His extraordinary Angel of Mercy, the centerpiece of this book, is one of the most controversial images in 18th-century British art.
