Constable and Turner Lecture

14th October 2014

2.00pm

Hartford Methodist Church Hall
Beach Road
Hartford
Northwich
Cheshire
CW8 3AD

A lecture by art historian Adrian Sumner looking at these two great revolutionaries, seen in the context of contemporary landscape art. Both John Constable and Joseph Mallord William Turner were passionate about Landscape and created personal visions through which we see Landscape, and particularly English Landscape, today.

We trace their influence through the French Romantic and Neo-Classical painters, as well as the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists , not to mention the New English Romantics of the inter-war period. Altogether this will be a marvellous journey of discovery.

There is a major exhibition of the work of John Constable at the V&A, and a JMW Turner exhibition of Late Paintings at Tate Britain.
