John Constable BiographyEnglish Romantic artistborn 1776 - died 1837 John Constable (1776-1837). English
painter, ranked with
Turner as
one of the greatest British landscape
artists. gan painting his native Suffolk scenery before he left school, his great originality matured slowly. |

He committed himself to a
career as an artist only in 1799, when John
Constable joined the Royal Academy Schools and it was
not until 1829 that he was grudgingly made a
full Academician, elected by a majority of
only one vote. In 1816 John Constable became financially
secure on the death of his father and
married Maria Bicknell after a seven-year
courtship and in the fact of strong
opposition from her family. During the 1820s
John Constable began to win recognition:
Constable paintings The Hay Wain
(National Gallery, London, 1821) won a gold
medal at the Paris Salon of 1824 and
Constable was admired by
Delacroix
and
Bonington
among others. His wife died in
1828, however, and the remaining years of
his life were clouded by despondency. |

For most
ambitious Constable paintings --`six-footers' as he called
them--he followed the unusual technical
procedure of making a full-size oil sketch,
and in the 20th century there has been a tendancy to praise these even more highly
than the finished John Constable paintings because of their
freedom and freshness of brushwork. (The
full-size sketch for The Hay Wain is in the V&A, London, which has the finest
collection of Constable oil paintings. In England John Constable had no real sucessor and the many imitators (who included his son Lionel, 1825-87) turned rather to the formal compositions than to the more direct sketches. In France, however, John Constable was a major influence on Romantics such as Delacroix, on the artists of the Barbizon School, and ultimately on the Impressionists. |
