John Constable : The Making of a Master - The Making of a Master

Klappentext Published to accompany a major V&A exhibition! this book evaluates these aspects of Constable's work! placing the artist's naturalism and studio work in the context of his wider practice - in particular his talent for copying! and extensive print collection. The remarkable naturalism of John Constable's paintings has always been acknowledged, and his 'vivid and timeless' (as he called them) oil sketches have been celebrated since the 1890s as precursors of Impressionism, modernism and photographic composition.
