"A Horse Startled by a Lion" is a renowned painting by the English artist George Stubbs, who is celebrated for his detailed and realistic depictions of horses. Created in 1770, this work is a striking example of Stubbs's mastery in capturing the anatomy of horses and his interest in portraying the dramatic interplay between wild animals, themes that are recurrent in his oeuvre.

The painting depicts a moment of intense drama as a horse rears back in terror upon encountering a lion. The composition is characterized by a stark contrast between the powerful, muscular form of the lion and the equally strong but visibly frightened horse. Stubbs's use of lighting and shadow adds to the tension and highlights the raw emotion of the scene.

Stubbs was known for his scientific approach to painting, often studying the anatomy of his subjects in great detail. This is evident in "A Horse Startled by a Lion," where the anatomical precision lends credibility to the scene. The painting is not only a testament to Stubbs's artistic skill but also reflects the 18th-century fascination with nature, the sublime, and the romanticization of the natural world's inherent dangers.

The painting is held in high regard for its contribution to the development of animal painting in British art and is often cited as an influential work that showcases Stubbs's ability to evoke narrative and emotion through his portrayal of animals. It remains a significant piece in the study of George Stubbs's body of work and the broader context of 18th-century British art.
