"Mares and Foals under an Oak Tree" is a 1773 oil painting by the British artist George Stubbs, renowned for his detailed and realistic depictions of horses. Stubbs, born in Liverpool in 1724, became one of the most famous equine artists of the 18th century, and his work has had a lasting influence on the portrayal of horses in art. This particular painting is part of a series that Stubbs created on the theme of mares and foals, which was a subject he returned to frequently throughout his career.

The painting features a pastoral scene with a group of mares and their foals gathered under the expansive branches of an oak tree. The composition showcases Stubbs's skill in rendering the anatomy of horses with precision and his ability to capture the tranquility and natural beauty of the English countryside. The oak tree in the painting not only provides a compositional anchor but also symbolizes strength and endurance, qualities often associated with horses.

"Mares and Foals under an Oak Tree" reflects Stubbs's deep understanding of equine behavior and his keen observation of nature. The artist's methodical approach to painting, which included studying the anatomy of horses by dissecting carcasses, allowed him to create works with an unprecedented level of realism. His paintings are characterized by their clarity, subtle use of light, and serene atmosphere, all of which are evident in this work.

The painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its contribution to the development of animal painting as a respected genre in British art. Stubbs's dedication to the subject matter and his ability to convey the dignity and grace of these creatures helped elevate the status of equine art. "Mares and Foals under an Oak Tree" is a testament to Stubbs's legacy as an artist who profoundly shaped the way horses are depicted in art and who provided a window into the rural life of 18th-century England.
