John Constable (1776 - 1837)

• John Constable is one of the greatest
  painters-realists of the 19th century. His
  pictures are as fresh and simple as the poetry
  of the Scotsman Robert Burns. As an artist he
  developed his style with great independence,
  studying nature and the world of old masters. He
  painted rain and sunshine cool evenings and the
  heat of midday. In his landscapes he tried to
  express his attitude to his native country.
  Constables paintings show us his love for the
  countryside and his deep respect for the common
  people of his native country.

  and a cart crossing it. In the distance you see

  the damp atmosphere of London.
