EDITORS COMMENTS
In this etching by George Stubbs, titled "A Horse Affrighted by a Lion" we are transported to a moment of intense fear and primal instinct. The print, published in 1788, showcases the artist's exceptional talent for capturing movement and emotion. The scene unfolds against a picturesque landscape, with rolling hills and lush vegetation providing an idyllic backdrop. However, our attention is immediately drawn to the startled horse at the center of the composition. Its eyes widen in terror as it rears up on its hind legs, desperately trying to escape from the predatory creature lurking nearby. Stubbs masterfully depicts both animals with incredible detail and realism. The lion exudes power and menace as it crouches low to the ground, ready to pounce on its unsuspecting prey. Every muscle in its body seems taut with anticipation. This artwork serves as a reminder of nature's raw beauty but also highlights the inherent dangers that exist within it. It captures a fleeting moment where survival instincts take over, showcasing both vulnerability and strength. Displayed at Yale Center for British Art as part of their esteemed Paul Mellon Collection, this print continues to captivate viewers centuries after its creation. It stands as a testament to Stubbs' skillful craftsmanship and his ability to evoke strong emotions through art.
