Description: "John Constable 1776-1837 is renowned throughout the world as a landscape painter of profound originality. Far less familiar are his portraits studies and drawings of people. This book argues that many of these unexplored paintings are worthy of close attention both for their contribution to the history of portraiture and for the insights they bring to a painter of international acclaim. Constable's sitters make up a 'Jane Austen' world belonging to the middle and upper ranks of early-nineteenth century provincial society: clergymen and their wives landed gentry and families wealthy from trade. From the outset Constable was interested in landscapes but was forced to supplement his allowance by painting portraits. A number of these previously unknown works are featured in this accessible yet scholarly book including family members close friends and children as well as commissioned portraits. Collectively they provide a fascinating study of the period. This book and exhibition seek to vindicate the view that Constable belongs to an important tradition of British portraiture to bring Constable's portraits back to the fore and give them the critical acclaim that they deserve." -- with a bonus offer-- .
