この絵画について
The artist described the view as 'a natural (but highly elegant) group of trees, ashes, elms, & oak &c - which will be of quite as much service as if I had bought the field and hedge row'. The spire of Hampstead parish church can be seen at the bottom left. Constable and his wife lie buried in the graveyard.

その頃、John Constableの人生では
生涯をすべて見る1821
“The Hay Wain” at the Royal Academy
The picture, shown as “Landscape: Noon”, found no buyer, but it was seen by the painter Théodore Géricault and the writer Charles Nodier. According to Delacroix, Géricault went back to France quite stunned and invited Constable to Paris, while Nodier urged French artists to look to nature rather than to trips to Rome.
1821
“I should paint my own places best”
In a letter to his friend John Fisher in 1821 Constable wrote that he should paint his own places best, and that painting is but another word for feeling. The Dedham Vale around his home came to be known as “Constable Country”.

Son born: Charles Golding Constable

To Fisher: “I have done a good deal of skying”
Constable wrote to Fisher that he had done a good deal of skying and was determined to conquer all the difficulties that remained. He made cloud studies, noting the weather, direction of light and time of day on the back, and held the sky to be the key note of a landscape, drawing on the meteorologist Luke Howard’s classification of clouds.
1822/1823
