known for his paintings of horses. Self-trained, Stubbs learnt his skills independently from other great artists of the 18th century such as <a href="/wiki/Joshua_Reynolds" title="Joshua Reynolds">Reynolds</a> and <a href="/wiki/Thomas_Gainsborough" title="Thomas Gainsborough">Gainsborough</a>. Stubbs' output includes history paintings, but his greatest skill was in painting animals (such as horses, dogs and lions), perhaps influenced by his love and study of anatomy. His series of paintings on the theme of a lion attacking a horse are early and significant examples of the <a href="/wiki/Romanticism" title="Romanticism">Romantic</a> movement that emerged in the late 18th century. He enjoyed <a href="/wiki/British_royal_family" title="British royal family">royal</a> patronage.
