Cloud Study, c. 1850
"Once thought to have been painted by John Constable, this sketch was later attributed to his son. The artist experiments with color in this atmospheric study, using gray, blue, and white pigments to indicate rain clouds gathering ominously above the thin strip of land visible along the bottom edge of the image. ..." The Clark, "... Lionel taught himself to paint by studying his father's work and for many years his paintings – including this one – were attributed to John Constable. Lionel always worked on a small scale, and the low horizon and pinky-mauve of the sky are typical of his style. ..." Art UK
