Art and Artists

One of the most famous of English artists is Constable. He painted peaceful landscapes that are still admired today.

Below you can see a big version of one of his paintings of tree trunks. Do you think you could paint tree trunks as beautifully as this?

 

Another famous artist was William Hogarth. This painting below is full of interesting details. It is showing an arranged marriage between two wealthy people, and the lawyers and parents organising everything. Can you work out who is the bride and who is the groom? Do you think they are in love with each other?

Another interesting English painter was Turner. He often painted very misty paintings with not much detail.
