Z życia: John Constable
Cały życiorys1802
Turns down a drawing-master post
Constable declined the post of drawing master at Great Marlow Military College, which Benjamin West, then head of the Academy, said would end his career. In a letter to John Dunthorne he admitted he had spent two years seeking the truth at second hand and declared his resolve to become a professional landscape painter.
1802–1803
First exhibitions at the Royal Academy
Constable first showed his work in 1802, and by 1803 he was exhibiting paintings at the Royal Academy.
1803
A month aboard the Coutts
Constable spent almost a month aboard the East Indiaman Coutts as it called at south-east ports on its way from London to Deal, before leaving for China.
1804
A year without exhibiting
In 1804 Constable showed no pictures at all, telling his friend Joseph Farington that nothing was to be gained by setting his work against paintings extravagant in colour and in bad taste. His small canvases were easily lost on walls hung from ceiling to floor.
