The life and works of Turner

Více o knize

John Constable is one of the best-known and best-loved of the English Romantic landscape painters. His serene landscapes of his native Suffolk countryside and simple country pursuits are poems to an idyllic, now vanished way of life. His paintings emphasize the constantly changing skies and the effects of light and shade on the landscape. Included in this collection are well-loved favourites such as The Haywain and one of the many studies of Dedham Mill in his beloved Suffolk. The Leaping Horse reveals another side to Constable's talent and shows him as a master of form and movement too.
