John Constable
Kingdom of Great Britain
John Constable is a Kingdom of Great Britain Romanticism painter. 409 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum, most of them oil paintings.
John Constable was an English landscape painter in the Romantic tradition. Born in Suffolk, he is known principally for revolutionising the genre of landscape painting with his pictures of Dedham Vale, the area on the borderland of Suffolk and north Essex surrounding his home – now known as "Constable Country" – which he invested with an intensity of affection. "I should paint my own places best", he wrote to his friend John Fisher in 1821, "painting is but another word for feeling".
