🔍 Thematic Zoom – George Stubbs, horse painter-anatomist

Few artists in history have combined art and science as masterfully as George Stubbs. Both a genius painter and a rigorous animal anatomist, he establishes himself in the 18th century as a unique figure in English animal painting.

📖 The Anatomy of the Horse: a foundational work

For 18 months, George Stubbs dissects horses, alone, on a farm in Lincolnshire. He produces a series of remarkably precise plates, published in 1766 under the title The Anatomy of the Horse. This study immediately becomes a scientific reference, but also a source of visual inspiration. Every muscle, every joint, every curve is represented accurately, without ever sacrificing elegance.

🐎 A new way of painting the animal

Thanks to this intimate anatomical knowledge, the horse paintings of George Stubbs vibrate with a living realism. Unlike his contemporaries, he does not simply stylize: he observes, understands, translates, in a style that is both rigorous and sensitive.

Whether it is an aristocratic equestrian portrait, a hunting scene, or a naturalistic representation of exotic animals, the animal in Stubbs is never a pretext: it is subject, soul, movement.
