This catalogue documents the works of the English landscape painter John Constable (1776-1837) that form part of the collection of the Tate Gallery in London. Through paintings, drawings and watercolours, the publication traces the development of Constable's artistic oeuvre, from his early studies of the English countryside to his characteristic landscapes of the countryside around Suffolk and the area surrounding the River Stour. It focuses on his meticulous observation of clouds, light and weather conditions, his experimental oil sketches and his innovative approach to landscape painting. The catalogue provides art-historical context and documentation for the works, making it a valuable reference work for the study of Constable's technique, artistic development and influence on nineteenth-century European painting.
