George Stubbs: 'all done from Nature' presents the first
significant overview of Stubbs's work in Britain for more than 30
years and brings together 80 paintings, drawings and publications
from the National Gallery's Whistlejacket to pieces never
previously seen in public. Stubbs produced exceptional images of
animals and people throughout his career. These were a product of
his keen scientific eye and uncommon sense of compassion. Rather
than trust to history and the untested example of his precursors,
he championed doing as a way of thinking and deployed
picture-making in pursuit of reality. On the title page of The
Anatomy of the Horse, his groundbreaking publication that rewrote
our understanding of equine biology, Stubbs confirmed that
everything that followed was 'all done from Nature' - meaning that
it all derived from his own painstaking analysis of the subject in
front of him. George Stubbs: 'all done from Nature' accompanies the
major exhibition at MK Gallery in Milton Keynes and the Mauritshuis
in The Hague and includes new writing on the artist by Nicholas
Clee, Martin Myrone, Martin Postle, Roger Robinson, Jenny Uglow and
Alison E. Wright.
