Life and Letters of John Constable, R. A [PDF ebook] 

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Memoir of John Constable was published, in the Preface to which he says I regret that it must appear without the beautiful engravings with which, in its first state, it was adorned. This first edition was published in 1843, with more than twenty plates after Constable, by David Lucas. Both this, and the second edition published in 1845, have long been out of print.
