EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the meticulous study of a tiger skeleton, offering viewers a unique glimpse into the intricate anatomy of this majestic creature. Created by George Stubbs, a renowned English artist from the 18th century, this graphite drawing titled "Lateral View of a Tiger Skeleton" is part of his larger project called "A Comparative Anatomical Exposition of the Structure of the Human Body with that of a Tiger and a Common Fowl". Measuring 40.6x54 cm, this artwork exemplifies Stubbs' exceptional attention to detail and his commitment to capturing anatomical accuracy. The delicate lines and shading bring life to each bone, revealing both the strength and grace inherent in these feline creatures. Housed at Yale Center for British Art as part of their esteemed Paul Mellon Collection, this print provides an invaluable resource for those interested in animal physiology or comparative anatomy. It serves as a testament to Stubbs' pioneering approach in merging art and science during his time. Through this image, we are reminded not only of nature's complexity but also our own connection to it. This piece invites us to marvel at the wonders found within every living being while encouraging us to explore deeper into our understanding of both ourselves and other species that share our world.
