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.
Jacquard-woven as a soft, double-sided tapestry throw with fringed edges — a warm layer for the sofa or bed.

This is exactly what I was looking for, and I looked for a long time. The texture in Woman with Baby Fleeing Across makes Constable feel present in the room. The fringe on this blanket is neat and has stayed that way through two washes. I have told half my family about this shop.
It made the study feel finished in a way I could not manage on my own. Owning Woman with Baby Fleeing Across means more to me than generic art ever could, and Constable is part of that. Ten out of ten from me.
It has completely changed how the playroom feels. My guests ask about Woman with Baby Fleeing Across before anything else in the house.
