George Stubbs' "Zebra" (1763) is a masterful depiction of exoticism and scientific curiosity, encapsulating the Enlightenment era's fascination with the natural world. Stubbs, an English painter renowned for his precise animal portraits, was born in 1724 in Liverpool. His early interest in anatomy, honed through dissections and studies of animal forms, set him apart from his contemporaries. Stubbs' dedication to realism and detail was revolutionary, bridging the gap between art and science.

"Zebra" exemplifies Stubbs' meticulous approach and his commitment to capturing the essence of his subjects. Painted during a time when exotic animals were rare in Europe, the piece reflects the period's burgeoning interest in exploration and discovery. The zebra, presented in profile against a neutral background, is rendered with astonishing accuracy, showcasing Stubbs' skill in texture and anatomy.

Stubbs' philosophical approach was rooted in empiricism, reflecting the Enlightenment's emphasis on observation and reason. Through "Zebra," he conveyed the marvel of the unfamiliar, inviting viewers to appreciate the beauty and complexity of nature. The painting is a testament to Stubbs' ability to transcend mere representation, imbuing his work with a sense of wonder.

Currently housed in the Yale Center for British Art, "Zebra" remains significant for its pioneering approach to animal portraiture, influencing generations of artists and solidifying Stubbs' legacy as a pivotal figure in the art world.
