About the piece

This 1825 oil study by John Constable captures the expansive vista of Hampstead Heath. Known for his revolutionary approach to sky and atmosphere, Constable depicts a dramatic, cloud-swept sky that dominates the composition, while a lone cow rests peacefully in the foreground shadows, grounding the ethereal light of the horizon.
