Om maleriet

Constable painted this study from life beside the dunghill at East Bergholt. It was a preparation for a large composition entitled The Stour Valley and Dedham Village, exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1815.

Imens i livet hos John Constable

Hele livet

1816
A marriage against the bride’s grandfather
Maria’s grandfather, Dr Rhudde, rector of East Bergholt, opposed the match: he thought the Constables his social inferiors and threatened to disinherit her. Constable’s parents approved but offered no support until he was financially secure; they died soon afterwards, and he inherited a fifth share of the family business.
1816
A honeymoon by the sea
After the wedding at St Martin-in-the-Fields, conducted by Fisher, the couple stayed at Fisher’s vicarage and toured the south coast. The sea at Weymouth and Brighton pushed Constable towards brilliant colour and lively brushwork.
2. oktober 1816
Married: Maria Bicknell
