Basically, He is certainly known for his landscape paintings and his rural landscapes is significant because it is useful in understanding the changing meaning of nature during the industrial revolution and later in the century this would become the primary subject of the Impressionists. Constable sought a high degree of accuracy in many species and infact he was the first artist we know of who studied meteorology so that the clouds and the atmospheric conditions that he rendered were scientifically precise.
