This watercolour is titled Old Houses at Harnham Bridge, Salisbury. It was created by John Constable. The artist's use of light and shadow is notable in this work. Constable's grasp of linear perspective is still not perfect, even at this late date in his career. To learn more about the use of contrast between light and shadow, look up the technique of chiaroscuro.
