The Glebe Farm

The Glebe Farm is an 1830 landscape painting by the British artist John Constable.[1] It shows a view of the Glebe Farm in the village of Langham in Essex on the Stour River in what is often now known as "Constable Country".Constable seems to have been inspired to paint the work by the death of his patron the Bishop of Salisbury in 1825.[2] Constable exhibited an early version of the painting at the British Institution in 1827.[3] Today the work is in the Tate Britain in Pimlico having been donated by the artists' family in 1888.
