"Portrait of a Monkey" is a notable work by the 18th-century British painter George Stubbs, renowned for his detailed and realistic depictions of animals. Dated 1774, this painting reflects Stubbs's keen interest in natural history and his exceptional skill in portraying animals with anatomical precision and individual character. Although Stubbs is best known for his equine subjects, "Portrait of a Monkey" exemplifies his broader fascination with the animal kingdom and his ability to capture the essence of different species.

The painting presents a solitary monkey, rendered with meticulous attention to its physical features and expressive countenance. The monkey is typically depicted against a plain background, which was a common stylistic choice for Stubbs, allowing viewers to focus on the subject's form and personality without distraction. The work is executed in oil on canvas, a medium in which Stubbs excelled, using his mastery of light and shadow to create a lifelike representation.

"Portrait of a Monkey" is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its contribution to the understanding of primates during a period when scientific interest in these animals was growing. The painting may have been inspired by Stubbs's visits to private menageries or natural history collections, which were becoming increasingly popular in the 18th century.

As with many of Stubbs's animal portraits, this work is appreciated for its combination of scientific accuracy and aesthetic appeal. It is a testament to the artist's dedication to studying his subjects from life and his ability to convey their individuality. "Portrait of a Monkey" remains an important example of George Stubbs's contribution to the genre of animal portraiture and continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance.
