About this work

This print shows a quiet scene from Yarmouth, Norfolk. John Constable made it in the mid-1800s using mezzotint, a print technique that creates rich, deep tones. It’s part of “Various Subjects of English Landscape,” a famous set of 22 prints Constable helped publish late in his career. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more of Constable’s work.
