EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases George Stubbs' "Study of the Human Figure, Anterior View" from his renowned work "A Comparative Anatomical Exposition of the Structure of the Human Body with that of a Tiger and a Common Fowl" created between 1795-1806. The artwork, rendered in graphite and ink on paper, measures 48.3x33 cm and is housed at the Yale Center for British Art in the Paul Mellon Collection. Stubbs was an esteemed artist and anatomist who delved into exploring the internal anatomy of various creatures, including humans. In this piece, he meticulously captures the intricate details of human bones and musculature in an anterior view. His expertise as both an artist and scientist shines through as he presents a comprehensive study that merges artistry with medical knowledge. The print transports viewers back to the 18th century when scientific exploration was flourishing. It serves as a testament to Stubbs' dedication to understanding anatomy while showcasing his artistic prowess. The delicate lines formed by graphite create a sense of precision and accuracy, highlighting each bone's structure. Bernie C. Staggers skillfully captures this significant artwork through photography, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even if we cannot witness it firsthand at Yale Center for British Art. This image invites contemplation on our own physicality while celebrating Stubbs' contribution to both art and medicine during his time in England.
