Summary: Essential reading for all John Constable enthusiasts
Comment: John Constable is arguably one of the finest painters in the history of British art. John Constable's Skies: A Fusion Of Art And Science is an impressive compilation of his sky and weather paintings, against which John Thornes (Reader in Applied Meteorology and Director of the Atmospheric Impacts Research Group within the School of Geography and Environmental Sciences at the University of Birmingham) provides an extensive and informative meteorological framework for reading "the skies of landscape art". Thornes analyses Constable's meteorological understanding and enhances our understanding and appreciation for what Constable was able to achieve with his art. John Constable's Skies is essential reading for all John Constable enthusiasts, and an important contribution to study of British art history.
