 | | The rake became the butt of moralistic tales in which his typical fate was debtor's prison, venereal disease, or, in the case of William Hogarth's A Rake's Progress, insanity in Bedlam. | | | The Restoration rake is celebrated in the Restoration comedy of the 1660s and 1670s. | | | A rake is a stock character, a man who wastes his (usually inherited) fortune on "wine, women, and song," incurring lavish debts in the process. |

| | A Rake's Progress - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | A Rake's Progress is a series of the paintings and engravings by William Hogarth made from 1733 to 1735. | | | The libretto of The Rake's Progress, written by W.H. Auden and Chester Kallman to a score by Igor Stravinsky, is loosely based on the story from Hogarth's paintings. | | | The eight pictures show the decline and fall of Tom Rakewell, the spendthrift son and heir of a rich merchant, who comes to London, wastes all his money on luxurious living, whoring and gambling, and as a consequence is imprisoned in the Fleet Prison and ultimately Bedlam. |
