EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of anatomical art by George Stubbs. Titled "Monkey Standing, Anterior View" this pen and ink drawing over graphite on paper provides a detailed study of the skeletal structure of a monkey. Measuring 28.6x34.3 cm, it is housed in the prestigious Yale Center for British Art as part of the Paul Mellon Collection. Stubbs' illustration is taken from his renowned work, "A Comparative Anatomical Exposition of the Structure of the Human Body with that of a Tiger and a Common Fowl". This scientific masterpiece delves into comparative anatomy, highlighting similarities and differences between various species. The monkey's full-length frontal view allows us to marvel at its intricate skull and primate features. The precision with which Stubbs captures every detail demonstrates his mastery as an artist-scientist during the late 18th to early 19th century. This exceptional artwork not only serves as an aesthetic delight but also contributes to our understanding of primate anatomy. It exemplifies how art can be utilized for scientific exploration, bridging disciplines seamlessly.
