Constable's Clouds: Paintings and Cloud Studies by John Constable
Edward Morris et al
'Skies must and always shall with me make an effectual part of the composition', wrote John Constable in 1821. 'It will be difficult to name a class of landscape in which the sky is not the key note.' This publication examines Constable's dramatic paintings of clouds, placing them in their intellectual, scientific and artistic contexts in a series of fascinating essays. Eighty oil sketches and paintings are fully discussed and illustrated in colour.
