- Summary:
- John Constable's Hay Wain is probably the most popular of all British paintings, and 'Constable' is loved and revered as the artist who first painted the fresh beauty of the verdant English countryside. From sketchy to finished, from minutely detailed to expressionist, Constable's paintings, watercolors and drawings are discussed against the background of one of the more turbulent periods of British history and integrated with their broader cultural milieu.
