"Study of a Tiger, Standing in Human Posture" is a notable work by the English painter George Stubbs, renowned for his detailed and realistic depictions of animals. This particular study is part of a larger project titled "A Comparative Anatomical Exposition of the Structure of the Human Body with that of a Tiger and a Common Fowl," which was produced over an eleven-year period from 1795 to 1806. The work reflects Stubbs's profound interest in anatomy and his ambition to understand the natural world through scientific investigation.

The project, ambitious in scope, aimed to juxtapose the anatomical structures of different species, highlighting similarities and differences. In this context, "Study of a Tiger, Standing in Human Posture" is especially significant as it presents the tiger in an anthropomorphic stance, allowing for a direct comparison with human anatomy. This approach was part of Stubbs's broader inquiry into comparative anatomy, a field that was gaining prominence in the late 18th century as explorations of the natural world expanded and the foundations of modern biology were being laid.

Stubbs, already famous for his equine portraits, brought the same meticulous attention to detail to this series. His work was informed by dissections he performed himself, demonstrating a level of scientific engagement unusual for an artist of his time. The series, including the study of the tiger, was intended for publication in a comprehensive atlas of comparative anatomy, although the project was never completed to the extent of Stubbs's original vision.

The "Study of a Tiger, Standing in Human Posture" is a testament to Stubbs's skill as both an artist and an anatomist. It exemplifies the Enlightenment-era drive to classify and understand the natural world through empirical observation and illustrates the cross-pollination between art and science during this period. The work remains an important piece within Stubbs's oeuvre and continues to be of interest to both art historians and those studying the history of science.
