"Study of the Human Figure, Lateral View" is a notable work by the English painter George Stubbs, renowned for his detailed and realistic depictions of animals. This piece is part of a larger project titled "A Comparative Anatomical Exposition of the Structure of the Human Body with that of a Tiger and a Common Fowl," which was produced between 1795 and 1806. The work reflects Stubbs's extensive interest in anatomy and his efforts to compare the anatomical structures of different species.

The project, ambitious in scope, aimed to illustrate the similarities and differences between the anatomies of a human, a tiger, and a chicken. Stubbs's approach was groundbreaking for its time, as it predated Charles Darwin's theories on evolution and natural selection by several decades. The study was intended to provide a comprehensive understanding of vertebrate anatomy, emphasizing the underlying unity of form among diverse species.

"Study of the Human Figure, Lateral View" specifically focuses on the human anatomy, presenting a detailed side view of the musculature and skeletal structure. Stubbs's meticulous attention to the human form in this work is consistent with his reputation for precision and accuracy, which he honed through his earlier studies of equine anatomy. The piece is a testament to Stubbs's skill as both an artist and a self-taught anatomist.

The series, including "Study of the Human Figure, Lateral View," was produced through a combination of drawing, engraving, and painting, showcasing Stubbs's versatility across different mediums. The works were intended for publication in a comprehensive atlas of comparative anatomy, although the project was never fully realized in Stubbs's lifetime. Nonetheless, the surviving pieces from this series are considered significant contributions to the fields of both art and science, providing insight into the early development of comparative anatomical studies.

Today, "Study of the Human Figure, Lateral View" and the related works from "A Comparative Anatomical Exposition of the Structure of the Human Body with that of a Tiger and a Common Fowl" are valued not only for their artistic merit but also for their historical importance in the context of anatomical and zoological research. These pieces offer a unique glimpse into the intellectual pursuits of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, reflecting the era's growing interest in the natural world and the principles governing the diversity of life.
