Constable : a master draughtsman /[Dulwich Picture Gallery].

This catalogue was produced to accompany the exhibition 'Constable: a Master Draughtsman' which took place in 1994 at Dulwich Picture Gallery. It focuses on the drawings of John Constable rather than the paintings and oil sketches for which he is generally well known. The author of the introduction co-organised the 1976 and 1991 Constable exhibitions at the Tate Gallery (now Tate Britain). The catalogue contains three essays by other scholars in the field: Anne Lyles of the Tate Gallery analyses and compares the drawings of Constable's contemporaries; Jane McAusland, conservator and restorer of art on paper, explores the paper and drawing materials available to artists in the late 18th and early 19th centuries; and the artist Patrick Heron discusses his personal response to Constable's draughtsmanship.
