Turner, his reputation rests on a handful of very well known paintings, usually Suffolk scenes such as Flatford Mill or Hay-Wain. Many of the magisterial productions of his last years, including Hadleigh Castle and The Opening of the Waterloo Bridge, are a far cry from the Suffolk scenes, whilst his accomplishments in the difficult and competitive genre of marine painting have been consistently undervalued.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBarry Venning's introduction presents Constable's background, his family life, his education and the early friendships from which he drew patronage, support and advice.
