He was born in Liverpool, where he began the study of his fa- ther's profession of surgery. In 1751. however, he went to Rome to study art. Upon his return to England he was soon receiving good prices for paintings of horses, and after 1758 devoted most of his time for six or seven ^ears to the prepara- tion of liis famous Anatomy of the Horse ( 1766), a work which. from the standpoint both of anat- omy and art, is still authoritative. In 1790 he was engaged to paint all the famous race-hor.ses from the time of the Godolphin Barb, but he only completed 10 in the series. He did some notable work in enameling on large plates. Some of his rustic and heroic pieces were very popular as engravings, but his paintings of horses have never been surpassed for realism and accuracy. Among his best known pictures are "The Grosve- nor Hunt," "Hor.se Affrighted bj' a Lion," "The Brick Cart,"' "Warren Hastings." and "Horse and Jockey." In 1800 he exhibited his largest pic- ture, measuring more than 13 feet by 8, which represents "Hambletonian beating Diamond at Newmarket." STUBBS, or STUBBE, John (e.1543-1591).

Though the pamphlet spoke of the Queen in re- spectful and loyal terms. Stubbs, his publisher, and the printer were found guilty on a charge of disseminating seditious writings and were sen- tenced to have their right hands cut off. This cruel punishment was. in fact, inflicted upon Stubbs and the publisher in the market-place at Westminster. Wlien Stubbs"s right hand was stricken off. he waved his hat with his left, and cried out, 'God save the Queen!' Nor did the treatment he had received ever lessen his fidelity to his sovereign. STUBBS, Willi.oi (1825-1901). An English historian and prelate. He was born at Knares- borough. in Yorkshire, and educated at Ripon Grammar School and at Christ Cliurch, Oxford, being elected to a fellowship at Trinity in the year of his graduation (1848). and ordained in the same year.
