John Constable (1776-1837) - Cloud Studies, 1821-22
'I have done a good deal of skying. I am determined to conquer all difficulties and that among the rest. . . .Certainly if a sky is obtrusive, as mine are, it is bad; but if it is evaded, as mine are not, it is worse; it must and always shall with me make an effectual part of the composition. It will be difficult to name a class of landscape in which the sky is not the key note, the standard of scale, and the chief organ of sentiment '.
John Constable
