The eldest son of a wealthy mill owner, John Constable entered the Royal Academy Schools in 1800 at the age of 24, and thereafter committed himself to painting nature out of doors. His ‘six-footers’, such as The Hay Wain and The Leaping Horse, were designed to promote landscape as a subject and to stand out in the Academy’s Annual Exhibition. Despite this he sold few paintings in his lifetime and was elected a Royal Academician late in his career.
