"A Lion Attacking a Horse" is an engraving by the English artist George Stubbs, published in 1788. Stubbs, renowned for his detailed and realistic depictions of animals, particularly horses, was also fascinated by more exotic creatures, including lions. This work reflects his interest in the natural world and the interactions between different species.

The engraving is based on Stubbs's earlier painting of the same subject, which he completed in 1762. The dramatic scene captures the ferocity and power of a lion pouncing on its prey, a theme that Stubbs revisited multiple times throughout his career. The artwork exemplifies Stubbs's skill in portraying animals in motion and his understanding of their anatomy, which he studied extensively through dissection.

"A Lion Attacking a Horse" was part of a series of engravings that Stubbs produced later in his career, allowing his work to reach a broader audience. The engraving process involved etching the image onto a copper plate, which was then used to print copies on paper. This method of reproduction was a common practice in the 18th century for artists wishing to disseminate their work more widely.

As with many of Stubbs's engravings, "A Lion Attacking a Horse" was well-received for its artistic merit and technical excellence. Today, it is considered an important example of Stubbs's contribution to British art and his enduring fascination with the natural world. The original painting and its related engravings remain subjects of interest for art historians and enthusiasts of Stubbs's work.
