Equestrian-Dominating a room at the National Gallery London is George Stubbs' (1724-1806) portrait of Whistlejacket. According to the National Gallery "A specialist horse painter, Stubbs deliberately depicted Whistlejacket without a rider against a blank backdrop, making the viewer focus solely on the majestic beauty and unrestrained power of the Arabian stallion."
