Exhibition of 1762

Held at the Society's headquarters at Spring Gardens in London, it featured displays from leading figures in sculpture, painting, architecture and printmaking.

[2] It featured submissions from numerous prominent British-based painters, many of whom had been founders members the previous year when the organisation broke away and staged the Exhibition of 1761.

[5] The veteran artist William Hogarth, smarting from the critical mauling of his Sigismunda Mourning Over the Heart of Guiscardo at the previous year's exhibition didn't submit any works and was increasingly more sympathetic to the satirical attacks on the exhibition than with the Society he had co-founded.

[6] Francis Hayman designed the frontispiece for the exhibition catalogue which Hogarth had done the previous year.

[10] The landscape artist Richard Wilson displayed two views of Kew Gardens The Pagoda and Bridge and The Ruined Arch.
