John Constable, one of the foremost landscape painters of the nineteenth century, was invited to paint this small landscape and a larger companion picture, Wivenhoe Park, Essex (National Gallery of Art, Washington DC), by his patron and friend Major General Francis Slater Rebow, in the late summer of 1816. As the artist wrote to his fiancée, Maria Bicknell, on 21 August that year:My dearest Love,I returned from my very pleasant visit at General Rebow’s on Monday … I am going to paint two small Landscapes for the General, views[,] one in the park of the house & a beautifull wood and peice of water, and another a scene in a wood with a beautifull little fishing house, where the young Lady (who is the heroine of all these scenes) goes occasionally to angle. (R. B. Beckett, ed., John Constable
