Constable’s Year: An Artist in Changing Seasons
The changing seasons shaped John Constable’s life as well as his paintings. Susan Owens follows those rhythms through his work, connecting the artist’s Suffolk upbringing and knowledge of the land with the skies, millponds, lanes and working countryside he painted. Nature appears here as something understood through experience and observation.
This illustrated study is arranged around the artist’s year, bringing weather, agriculture and the demands of exhibiting into the same story. It is an absorbing way to approach a painter whose familiar landscapes can conceal the boldness of his methods. A substantial reading choice for admirers of English landscape painting, with 224 pages and colour illustrations.
