Exhibition February 20 − June 1, 2020
Mauritshuis Gallery presents the exhibition "George Stubbs. Man, Horse, Obsession".

George Stubbs (1724-1806) - one of the most significant artists of England of the eighteenth century. However, in the Netherlands it is almost unknown. An unusual highlight of the exhibition is the life-size masterpiece Whistlejacket from the National Gallery in London.

Through thirteen paintings, ten anatomical drawings, and the original skeleton of the world famous Eclipse horse, Mauritshuis will show how Stubbs evolved to become a leading horse painter in the United Kingdom.
