Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 1st ed. Minimal wear to cover. Pages clean and binding tight. shelf wear. bumped edges. Paperback. This definitive study of the legendary British landscape painter John Constable (1776-1837) reveals the full breadth and originality of his vision of nature.In his heroic pursuit of 'natural painting', Constable took plein-airism to its limits in the early years of the nineteenth century before deciding that an overall naturalism could only be achieved in the studio.
