George Stubbs (1724-1806), known in his day merely as "Mr. Stubbs, the Horse Painter," is now recognized at the forefront of British art. He is one of the most original and searching of all animal painters, whether his subject is a brood mare, a monkey, or a poodle in a punt. He is also a realistic and perceptive portraitist, as much a master of the art of class distinction in 18th-century England as he is of horse anatomy.
