Constable: A European Painter

11 October 2018

Earlier in the year we produced a short catalogue celebrating a group of ten drawings by John Constable. As a result of the catalogue we sold a group of six drawings by Constable to the Teylers Museum in Haarlem. This was the first major acquisition of British drawings by the museum and the first major group of works by Constable to enter a public collection in the Netherlands. We were particularly excited by the purchase because it underscores the permeability of influence that exists between British and Continental art in the early nineteenth century.
