The artist Paul Hogarth was active as a watercolourist and printmaker, he was best known for the drawings and watercolours made on his extensive travels, many of which were used to illustrate books that he published. Hogarth also enjoyed a successful career as an illustrator.
Beginning in 1962, he drew the covers for all of the novels of Graham Greene, published by Penguin Books, and developed a close friendship with the author. (He also illustrated books by Lawrence Durrell, Robert Graves and John Betjeman, among others.)
