John constable, born 11th of June 1776 was an English landscape painter in the romantic tradition. He was known for his paintings of Dedham Vale, the area surrounding his home.

Constable was one of the first artists of the Romantic movement to create landscape paintings drawn directly from nature rather than the idealised and dramatic depictions favoured by other artists of the period and in taking this stance he pioneered Naturalism in Britain.

Examples of his work –

Overall these photos show the natural beauty of the world and all the nature within it capturing the trees and a variety of landscapes to show how beautiful the natural world could be.

He painted photos that had a lot of meaning to him, he did not grow up wealthy so he often painted his home and the land he lived on. Because of the poverty he grew up around and lived around, he wanted to show that there was beauty anywhere through the nature and the world we live on.

He wanted to focus on nature because during this time period, the industrial revolution was a big era and he wanted to steer away from this thought of everything manmade and wanted to bring light on the natural life.
