John Constable - Woman with Baby Fleeing Across Moors | Area Rug

This dramatic sketch of a woman fleeing across open moorland with a baby is a rarer, more narrative subject for John Constable, who is best known for tranquil Suffolk river scenes. It likely relates to his occasional forays into more overtly emotional or literary subject matter, sketched with the same fast, urgent hand he used to capture changing skies and weather. The drawing shows a different register of Constable's imagination, closer to the Romantic sensibility of contemporaries like Turner.
