Print Info
These special hand-printed etchings are created from the original Victorian etching plates. They are then hand-coloured by skilled artists to create an extremely high quality collector's item. The prints carry the original engravers wording underneath. Although we can't show this on the site the prints will be framed to show this wording and the surrounding plate mark, which provides a natural border. The dimensions given are to the plate mark, not of the image alone. |
| Stubbs, George (1724-1806), was probably the best equestrian painter that Britain has ever produced. He originally studied anatomy and painted portraits to earn a living in York. Later he travelled to Italy and saw a lion eating a horse on a part of the trip. The image became an obsession and upon his return he lived as a recluse, dissecting and drawing dead horses, whose anatomy he knew inside out. |
