Summary

Far more than a fine horse portraitist, George Stubbs was a painter and a printmaker of the highest importance, on a par with his contemporaries, Hogarth, Reynolds and Gainsborough. This book uncovers his origins and some of the secrets of his youth: sympathy with the Jacobite rebels and Catholicism; and an undocumented wife and family in York.
