Executed in 1765, Lion Attacking a Horse is one of the definitive smaller-scale variations of George Stubbs’ iconic animal confrontation series. Predating the full-fledged Romantic movement, Stubbs pioneered the concept of the Sublime in nature—contrasting the absolute terror and taut musculature of a white horse with the primal ferocity of an attacking lion. Housed in the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV) in Melbourne, Australia, this composition stands as a milestone of 18th-century wildlife painting and anatomical mastery.
