"Study of the Human Figure, Posterior View," is a notable work by the English painter George Stubbs, renowned for his detailed and realistic depictions of animals and human anatomy. Created circa 1795-1806, this work 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." This ambitious series reflects Stubbs's deep interest in comparative anatomy, a field that was gaining significant interest during the 18th century as part of the broader Enlightenment pursuit of scientific knowledge.

The study is a meticulous anatomical drawing that showcases the human figure from the back, with an emphasis on the musculature and skeletal structure. Stubbs's approach to the subject is clinical and educational, aiming to provide an accurate representation of the human form for both artistic and scientific communities. The work is a testament to Stubbs's skill as a draftsman and his dedication to understanding the mechanics of living bodies, which he believed was essential for creating lifelike depictions in art.

"Study of the Human Figure, Posterior View" is part of a tradition of anatomical illustration that dates back to the Renaissance, when artists like Leonardo da Vinci and Andreas Vesalius began exploring the human body in detail to enhance the realism of their work. Stubbs's contribution to this tradition is significant, as it not only served the artistic community but also contributed to the scientific study of anatomy by comparing the structures of different species.

The series to which this study belongs was a culmination of Stubbs's lifelong interest in anatomy, which had earlier led to the publication of "The Anatomy of the Horse" in 1766. The comparative exposition, however, remained unpublished during Stubbs's lifetime, and the drawings were not fully recognized for their scientific and artistic value until much later. Today, "Study of the Human Figure, Posterior View" is considered an important work in the history of both art and science, illustrating the interdisciplinary nature of knowledge during the period and providing insight into the methods and interests of one of the 18th century's most accomplished painters.
