The Bruiser

William Hogarth, 1763

This is a drawing of a bear with a frothy mug and a dog below, surrounded by various items. The illustration depicts a bear holding a foamy tankard while emerging from an oval frame. The bear wears frilled clothing around its neck and is artistically anthropomorphized. Below the bear, there is a dog sitting obediently. The foreground contains a painter's palette and brushes, several books stacked upon one another, and a small tankard. The background features draped fabric. The image includes a poem underneath.
