Salisbury frick.jpg

Salisbury Cathedral From the Bishop’s Grounds 1826 by John Constable, The Frick Collection.

This version also includes a figure of the Bishop pointing out the cathedral's spire and the young lady with the parasol is assumed to be one of his daughters.

Salisbury river.jpg

Salisbury Cathedral from The River, 1820 by John Constable, National Gallery, London.

Constable painted this work for his friend the Dr. John Fisher, the Bishop of Salisbury and his nephew Archdeacon John Fisher after the Archdeacon was granted the house in the foreground for life.

John_Constable_017.jpg

Salisbury Cathedral from the Bishop's Grounds, ca. 1825 by John Constable, The Metropolitan Museum of Art.

This one is a favorite of mine by Constable because the cathedral is so clear and detailed.

Constable_Salisbury_meadows.jpg

Salisbury Cathedral from the Meadows, 1831 by John Constable, Tate Britain.

This version of the cathedral is the most "romantic" with the horse and cart in the foreground and the rainbow in the background, which was apparently a later addition to the work.
