À propos du tableau

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.

Dans la vie de John Constable

La vie entière
  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 2 octobre 1816

    Married: Maria Bicknell
