Description: | Atl H CRE STUBBS, George; (English; 1724-1806) CRE STUBBS, George Townley; (English; 1756-1815) NFA assisted purchase. By 1790, Stubbs was working on an ambitious project, a series of 16 pictures, Review of the Turf, which was intended to be a history of every racehorse of note since the 1750s. In 1794, the 16 pictures were exhibited in The Turf Gallery in Conduit Street. George Townley Stubbs engraved the pictures under the close direction of his father. The project failed as few subscribers volunteered. The original painting of Mambrino dates from c.1790, and is now in the Halifax Collection. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | HORSE : LANDSCAPE : CHURCH : FENCE : STABLE : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
