British, Romantic Painter. In his time he was known only to a narrow circle of aristocratic sportsmen and horse lovers, for his contemporaries he was a mere horse-painter. His interest in anatomy and its studies continued all his life and proved to be important not only to his art but also a new contribution to science. In 1766 his"The Anatomy of the Horse" was published. Stubbs died in 1806, July 10, in poor financial circumstances. His works are still mostly, in private collections, in the houses for which they were executed.
