George Stubbs (1724-1806) was a celebrated English painter, renowned for his exceptional depictions of horses and animals.
Born in Liverpool, he initially trained as a painter but later turned his focus to the anatomy of horses, studying them extensively to achieve remarkable accuracy in his work. His knowledge culminated in the publication of 'The Anatomy of the Horse' in 1766, a groundbreaking work that blended art and science, greatly influencing both artists and veterinarians.
Stubbs’s paintings are characterised by their meticulous attention to detail and a unique blend of realism and elegance. His ability to capture the spirit and vitality of his equine subjects was unparalleled and works such as 'Whistlejacket' exemplify his skill. This iconic painting features a life-sized, rearing horse displayed against a plain background, drawing the viewer’s attention to its muscular form and expressive demeanour.
While Stubbs is primarily known for his equine portraits, he also painted a variety of other subjects, including dogs, scenes of hunting and landscapes. His art often conveyed not just the physical presence of animals but also their connection to the human experience, illustrating the close bond between man and nature.
Stubbs’s influence on the genre of animal painting is immense, and he is regarded as one of the foremost English painters of the 18th century. His commitment to realism and his innovative techniques laid the groundwork for future generations of artists, cementing his legacy as a master of both art and anatomy.
