EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases George Stubbs' "Study for a Self Portrait in Enamel, 1781". The self-portrait, created with graphite on wove paper, measures 30.5x22.9 cm and is housed in the prestigious Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection. In this half-length self-portrait, Stubbs presents himself as a distinguished Georgian artist. Holding a palette and brush, he exudes confidence and skill. The squared oval composition suggests that this drawing served as a preparatory study for an enamel portrait of the artist. Stubbs meticulously captures his own likeness with remarkable proportionality. His bald head adds to the air of wisdom and experience emanating from the piece. Through his masterful use of shading and line work, he creates depth and texture that bring his image to life. This artwork not only serves as a testament to Stubbs' technical prowess but also offers insight into the mind of an accomplished painter. It provides viewers with a glimpse into the meticulous planning process behind creating such exquisite works of art. As we gaze upon this stunning self-portrait study by George Stubbs, we are reminded of his enduring legacy as one of England's most celebrated artists.
