- Summary:
- Hugely popular, John Constable (1776-1837) is often cited as the most genuine painter of the English countryside. His iconic images of rural life and landscape are endlessly reproduced, evoking a vanished idyll. Looking beyond the myths that have grown up around the artist, and drawing on a close reading of both his work and letters, William Vaughan provides a fresh understanding of the scope of Constable's achievement.
