The story of Wivenhoe Park, Essex
Wivenhoe Park was finished in September 1816 and was commissioned by Major General Francis Slater Rebow, owner of the estate and a friend of Constable's father. The park lies near Colchester in Essex and is now the campus of the University of Essex. Rebow's seven-year-old daughter, whom Constable had painted in 1812, appears in a donkey cart at the left.

John Constable
John Constable was an English landscape painter in the Romantic tradition. Born in Suffolk, he is known principally for revolutionising the genre of landscape painting with his pictures of Dedham Vale, the area on the borderland of Suffolk and north Essex surrounding his home – now known as "Constable Country" – which he invested with an intensity of affection. "I should paint my own places best", he wrote to his friend John Fisher in 1821, "painting is but another word for feeling".
