Synopsis by C. Dwayne Smith

Part of the English Masters series of biographies, this entry from Kultur Video paints a vivid picture of the late great John Constable, who is well-known as the last celebrated painter whose work of landscape was in keeping with the tradition of the legendary old masters like Beaumont, Beckford, and Joseph Farington. From blank canvas to finished product, this documentary covers the full palette of creative design, beginning with Constable's first sale, A View on the Stour through to his final sale before his death, Arundel Mill and Castle .
