"The Roast Beef of Old England, or Calais Gate" (1748) is a celebrated painting by the English artist William Hogarth, renowned for his satirical and moralistic works. This painting, also known as "O the Roast Beef of Old England ('The Gate of Calais')", is a patriotic and satirical piece that reflects Hogarth's views on the British and French national characters, as well as his commentary on the political situation of the time.

The artwork depicts a scene at the gate of Calais, France, with a focus on the contrast between the robust English Sir Robert Walpole, who is being served a large joint of beef, and the gaunt French soldiers and impoverished townspeople. The painting is rich in symbolism and allegory, with Hogarth using food to represent the perceived strength and prosperity of England in contrast to the perceived weakness and poverty of France.

Hogarth's work is characterized by its detailed and lively representation of contemporary life and its underlying social critique. "The Roast Beef of Old England" is no exception, as it showcases his skill in using visual storytelling to convey complex ideas about national identity, pride, and the social issues of his day. The painting is held in high regard for its historical significance and its role in the development of British art, particularly in the genre of satirical painting.

The painting is part of the collection at Tate Britain in London, where it continues to be studied and appreciated for its artistic merit and historical context. As with many of Hogarth's works, "The Roast Beef of Old England" has been widely analyzed by art historians and critics, and it remains an important example of 18th-century British art and a testament to Hogarth's enduring legacy as a social commentator through his art.
