Branch Hill Pond, Hampstead

An amateur meteorologist, John Constable was most at home painting closely observed clouds, weather and natural light, which he believed conveyed the vitality of the English countryside. Working from the summer house he rented at Hampstead from 1819 to 1826, he painted this 1828 landscape, giving more attention to the dark rain clouds than to the labourers in the foreground.
