Weymouth Bay 1830 - 1855

John Constable’s “Weymouth Bay” (1830-1855) is a dramatic black and white etching that captures the tumultuous nature of the English coastline. This landscape depicts a stormy sky with thick clouds and a crashing ocean, creating a sense of vastness and untamed power. The image, which is housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, showcases Constable’s artistic mastery in capturing the fleeting effects of light and weather.
