Constable: The Rural Rebel
Was Constable a chocolate box painter or a revolutionary? Art historian Rose Balston explores six decades of 成人论坛 archive to discover how TV has influenced our understanding of him.
Often dismissed as a chocolate box painter in his day, Constable is now acknowledged to have been a revolutionary. Art historian Rose Balston explores six decades of 成人论坛 archive to discover how TV has influenced our understanding of him.
Constable pushed the boundaries of landscape painting to such an extent that he was rejected by the establishment. Perhaps just as surprisingly, he poured his love for one woman onto the canvas as no painter of landscapes had done before. This programme goes beyond clich茅 to discover what the 成人论坛 archive has to say about a much misunderstood English master.
