Animal painter information


George Stubbs (1724–1806): Whistlejacket (c. 1762), National Gallery[1]

An animal painter is an artist who specialises in (or is known for their skill in) the portrayal of animals.

The OED dates the first express use of the term "animal painter" to the mid-18th century: by English physician, naturalist and writer John Berkenhout (1726–1791).[2] From the early 20th century, wildlife artist became a more usual term for contemporary animal painters.[3]
