London holds 149 works by John Constable across 5 institutions, including Victoria and Albert Museum, National Gallery, and 3 other venues.
Constable transformed landscape painting by taking nature seriously as subject matter, working from direct observation. His large exhibition paintings have a physical scale and freshness in person that earns their ambition; his oil sketches reveal a painter of astonishing spontaneity.
