Description
This sketch depicts the abandoned medieval town of Old Sarum, near Salisbury. Constable remarked on its wild beauty and historical associations: 'The pomp of Kings, is now the Shepherd's humble pride'. He later published a print of the view and also painted a large watercolour of the subject. The artist was a native of Suffolk who died in 1837 at the age of sixty-one years. He is one of the greatest English landscape painters but did not become recognized until he was elected to the Royal Academy at the age of fifty-two. He struggled financially until then with his works selling better in France than in England. The original is in the Victoria and Albert Museum, London and measures 143 by 210 millimeters.
