Painting Description
"Study of a Tiger, Lateral View" is a significant anatomical artwork by the British painter George Stubbs, renowned for his detailed and realistic depictions of animals. Created as part of a larger work titled "A Comparative Anatomical Exposition of the Structure of the Human Body with that of a Tiger and a Common Fowl," this piece was produced over an eleven-year period from approximately 1795 to 1806. Stubbs, who is best known for his equine portraits, embarked on this ambitious project to explore the anatomy of different species and to compare them with human structures, reflecting the Enlightenment era's burgeoning interest in natural history and science.
The study is a testament to Stubbs's meticulous approach to art and science, as he dissected the animals himself to ensure the accuracy of his representations. His work predated Charles Darwin's theories on evolution, yet it provided an early comparative anatomical study that hinted at the interconnectedness of different species. "Study of a Tiger, Lateral View" showcases the muscular and skeletal structure of the tiger in a side profile, demonstrating Stubbs's skill in rendering the complexity of anatomical forms with precision and clarity.
This piece, along with the rest of the comparative anatomy series, contributed to the understanding of zoological and anatomical science during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It also cemented Stubbs's reputation as not only a painter of horses but also as a scientific illustrator of the highest caliber. Today, "Study of a Tiger, Lateral View" is recognized not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical significance in the fields of art and science.
