George Stubbs
The Most Original and Searching of All Animal Painters
Stubbs, labeled `Mr Stubbs the Horse Painter,' was undervalued for far too long. Now he is recognized as the equal of his contemporaries, Gainsborough and Reynolds. He is the most original and searching of all animal painters, whether his subject is a brood-mare and foal, a monkey or a poodle in a punt; he is also a realistic and perceptive portraitist of human beings, as much a master of the art of class-distinction in eighteenth-century England as he is of the anatomy of the horse. Above all, he is a master of design, able to translate faithful observations from nature into unforgettable images. This is a unique record of the most important exhibition of Stubbs ever held, described by the Times Educational Supplement as `wild, exotic and modern.'
`...succeeds in presenting many of his paintings and etchings in a comprehensive and interesting fashion. Recommended for art classes, especially those that emphasize the painting of animals. Video Rating Guide for Libraries, USA
