Constable's Great Landscapes: The Six-Foot Paintings - Softcover
Synopsis
Profusely illustrated in colour and in black & white of Constables magnificent paintings, sketches, studies, etc. In 1819 English artist John Constable (1776-1837) produced The White Horse, the first in a series of six large-scale canvases featuring the River Stour. His decision to create works that by their very size attracted attention when exhibited, but also reflected a more classical style, marked a turning point in Constable's career. This beautifully illustrated book, featuring newly-commissioned essays by leading experts, accompanied a major touring exhibition that brought these masterpieces together for the first time. By showing each work beside its fullscale compositional sketch, it allows a new understanding and appreciation of Constable's artistic process.

Issued in conjunction with 2006-2007 exhibitions featuring the wide canvases of British landscape artist John Constable (1776-1837). "For the first time, each work is shown beside its full-scale compositional sketch, allowing a new understanding and appreciation of Constable's artistic process. These incredibly time-consuming sketches were an innovative tool used by Constable primarily to aid his move from working outdoors to the studio and yet, interestingly, they were a working practice that he maintained to the end of his career."
