The masterpieces of Constable (1776-1837). Sixty reproductions of photographs from the original paintings, affording examples of the different characteristics of the artist's work
A 1910 picture-book from F.A. Stokes of New York, gathering sixty halftone photographs of John Constable's paintings for general readers and art students. The plates are soft, grainy monochrome landscapes — massed trees, low horizons, cloud-heavy skies, cottages, mills and river banks — useful as smoky tonal backgrounds, silhouette treelines and weathered texture fields.
