George Stubbs anatomical studies of horses would have helped inform his final paintings as this knowledge of underlying structure be it the skeletal frame and or the layers of surrounding muscle would have allowed him capture a truer/ more correct representation of the horses form.
In the following studies I have drawn the skeleton of a cat, dog and a horse from photographs found on the internet, on the biro/ink drawing of the skeleton I have placed, the outer form that I have imagined, as suggested by the skeleton, in a layer of smudged charcoal so that the skeletal frame is still visible.
