About this work

This print shows a quiet English farm scene by John Constable. Made in 1832, it’s part of a famous set of 22 mezzotints he helped oversee. Constable didn’t just paint these views. He picked which sketches to turn into prints, then guided the process closely so the prints stayed true to his eye. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum.
