About Study of A boat passing a lock
Constable's powerful and original conception of what he termed 'natural painture', or the 'pure and unaffected representation' of nature (outlined in a letter of 29 May 1802 to his friend John Dunthorne), first came to the attention of the artist's contemporaries in six great canvases depicting the Stour Valley in the Suffolk countryside, which were exhibited at London's Royal Academy between 1819 and 1825. Working on a scale usually reserved for history painting, Constable endowed his images of everyday agricultural Britain with a new dignity and authority.
