"Anatomy of a Horse" is a notable illustration from the work "Cours d'Hippiatrique ou Traité Complet de la Médecine des Chevaux" (Course of Hippology or Complete Treatise on the Medicine of Horses), authored by the French veterinarian and hippologist Etienne-Guillaume Lafosse, also known as Harguinier. Published in the 18th century, this comprehensive guide was a significant contribution to the field of veterinary science, particularly in the study and care of horses.

The illustration itself is a detailed depiction of the equine anatomy, showcasing the muscular and skeletal structure of the horse. Such anatomical diagrams were crucial for veterinarians, horse owners, and breeders of the time, as they provided an in-depth understanding of the horse's body, which was essential for effective treatment and care. The work of Harguinier is reflective of the Enlightenment's emphasis on scientific rigor and empirical observation, and it played a role in the advancement of veterinary medicine.

"Cours d'Hippiatrique" is considered an important historical text, as it encapsulates the knowledge and practices of equine medicine during a period when horses were vital to transportation, agriculture, and military operations. The treatise, including the "Anatomy of a Horse" illustration, not only served as a reference for contemporary readers but also provides modern scholars with insights into the evolution of veterinary science and the historical significance of equine management and care.
