About this work

This print shows a windmill near Brighton, made by John Constable in 1830. It’s part of a famous series of mezzotints he carefully supervised. Constable chose only his best landscapes to turn into prints. The project aimed to bring his paintings to more people. After his death, others kept printing the plates for years.
