Constable In Love

Love, Landscape, Money and the Making of a Great Painter

Beschreibung

John Constable and Maria Bicknell might have been in love but their marriage was a most unlikely prospect. For seven long years the couple were forced to correspond and meet clandestinely. But it was during this period of longing that Constable developed as a painter.
