ISBN: 9781854376350.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1819 English artist John Constable (1776–1837) produced The White Horse, the first in a series of six large-scale canvases featuring the River Stour. His decision to create works that by their very size attracted attention when exhibited, but also reflected a more classical style, marked a turning point in Constable’s career. This book concentrates on these remarkable works.\n\nThis beautifully illustrated book, featuring newly-commissioned essays by leading experts, accompanies a major touring exhibition that brings these masterpieces together for the first time. By showing each work beside its fullscale compositional sketch, it allows a new understanding and appreciation of Constable’s artistic process. These time-consuming sketches were an innovative tool used by Constable primarily to aid his move from working outdoors to the studio, and became his practice until the end of his career.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"TATE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44425914810421,"sku":"ByrdShop_1854376357","price":316.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781854376350_57060a04-1e0d-4cc4-aad9-e4aca970020d.jpg?v=1784260120","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/constable-the-great-landscapes-9781854376350","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
