"Study of a Fowl, Lateral View" is a notable illustration by the English painter George Stubbs, renowned for his work depicting horses and other animals with anatomical precision. This particular study is part of a larger work entitled "A Comparative Anatomical Exposition of the Structure of the Human Body with that of a Tiger and a Common Fowl," which was produced over an eleven-year period from 1795 to 1806. The exposition consists of a series of engravings that reflect Stubbs's interest in comparative anatomy, a field that gained prominence in the 18th century as scientists sought to understand the similarities and differences among various species' anatomical structures.

George Stubbs, born in 1724, was largely self-taught in the fields of anatomy and art. His dedication to the study of anatomy was such that he spent 18 months dissecting horses to better understand their musculature and skeletal structure, leading to the publication of "The Anatomy of the Horse" in 1766. This meticulous attention to anatomical detail is evident in "Study of a Fowl, Lateral View," which showcases Stubbs's skill in rendering the intricate details of the fowl's anatomy.

The illustration is characterized by its scientific accuracy and artistic finesse, capturing the fowl in a lateral or side view that allows for a clear depiction of the musculature and skeletal framework. The work serves not only as an artistic endeavor but also as an educational tool, providing insights into the comparative anatomy of different species. Stubbs's work in this area was pioneering, as it predated Charles Darwin's evolutionary theories by several decades, yet it echoed the growing interest in the natural sciences and the relationships among living organisms.

"Study of a Fowl, Lateral View" is a testament to George Stubbs's dual legacy as both an artist and a scientific illustrator. His contributions to the field of anatomical art remain significant, and this work stands as a fine example of the intersection between art and science during the Enlightenment period. The complete exposition, including the study of the fowl, is considered an important part of Stubbs's oeuvre and continues to be studied and admired for its precision and beauty.
