Finally are the works after 1808Dedham Vale: morning, Flatford Mill from a Lock on the Stour, A Summerland, The Stour Valley and Dedham Village, and the recently rediscovered The Wheatfieldworks that made Constable a major force in British landscape painting. The volumes also include Constables numerous sketches of his homeland around East Bergholt and Dedham from this period, drawings on which he based his later masterpieces.
