John Constable's skies : a fusion of art and science

John Thornes provides a meteorological framework for 'reading' the skies of landscape art, analyses Constable's own meteorological understanding, examines the development of his painted skies, and compares his skies to those produced by other artists from the middle ages to the nineteenth century.
