About the painting

Constable probably painted this spontaneous sketch in East Bergholt. A few days earlier he wrote: 'How much real delight I have had with the study of Landscape this summer. Either I am myself improving in "the art of seeing nature"…or nature has unveiled her beauties to me with a less fastidious hand'.
