Beskrivning
En detaljerad oljemålning från 1762 av George Stubbs som föreställer ett jaktlag på den engelska landsbygden, känd för sin anatomiska precision och balanserade komposition.
George Stubbs, en mästare på djuranatomi och brittisk sportkonst, producerade detta verk 1762 för familjen Grosvenor. Kompositionen föreställer ett jaktlag samlat på ett stort, öppet fält, förankrat av ett stort, moget träd som ger en naturlig ram åt figurerna. Stubbs demonstrerar sin precisa observation av hästar och hundar, och fångar spänningen och rörelsen som är inneboende i jakten. Ryttarna är placerade i mellanplanet, medan hundflocken upptar förgrunden, deras former återgivna med noggrann uppmärksamhet på individuell hållning och interaktion.
Belysningen antyder en sen eftermiddag, som kastar långa skuggor och badar scenen i en varm, gyllene nyans. Bakgrunden har en mjuk, böljande horisont, typisk för de engelska landsbygdsmiljöerna som konstnären föredrog. Stubbs var känd för sin vetenskapliga inställning till måleri, efter att ha ägnat år åt att dissekera hästar för att förstå deras muskulatur och skelettstruktur. Denna tekniska stringens är tydlig i djurens anatomiska noggrannhet, som besitter en känsla av fysisk närvaro och tyngd. Målningen fungerar både som en dokumentation av familjen Grosvenors sportaktiviteter och en studie av förhållandet mellan människor, hästar och hundar i en lantlig miljö.
Till skillnad från många av hans samtida som fokuserade på dramatiska händelser, valde Stubbs ofta stunder av relativ stillhet eller kontrollerad rörelse. Detta gör det möjligt för betraktaren att undersöka detaljerna i utrustningen, ryttarnas kläder och hundarnas varierande raser. Verket är fortfarande ett primärt exempel på den 1700-tals brittiska traditionen att dokumentera gods och aristokratins fritidsintressen. Genom sin disciplinerade applicering av färg och skarpa öga för proportioner, lyfte Stubbs genren sportkonst till en nivå av akademisk seriositet.

Artist Biography
George Stubbs
Stubbs painted a horse being attacked by a lion and it became the most reproduced image in eighteenth-century British art. He painted the subject at least seventeen times. He had never seen a lion attack a horse. He had seen a classical sculpture of the subject in Rome and decided it was worth repeating.
He was born in Liverpool, the son of a currier (a leather worker). He was largely self-taught. In his twenties he spent eighteen months in a farmhouse in Horkstow, Lincolnshire, dissecting horses. He suspended the carcasses from the ceiling using hooks and pulleys, peeled back the layers of skin and muscle, and drew every stage. The results were published as The Anatomy of the Horse (1766), one of the most accurate anatomical studies ever produced by an artist. The book established his reputation.
His horse portraits are commissioned works: wealthy landowners wanted their racehorses painted. Stubbs obliged, but his understanding of equine anatomy gave the paintings a presence that other sporting painters could not match. Whistlejacket, a life-size portrait of a chestnut stallion rearing against a plain background, is among the most striking animal paintings ever made. There is no landscape, no rider, no context. Just the horse.
He also painted dogs, exotic animals (a zebra, a rhinoceros, a moose), and rural scenes with labourers and haymakers. He experimented with enamel painting on ceramic tablets made by Josiah Wedgwood. He was elected to the Royal Academy but refused to submit a diploma piece, which meant he was never made a full Academician. He died in 1806, at eighty-one.
