Turner and Constable An Exhibition On Screen
Both Turner and Constable spent time in Salisbury and the surrounding area, where many of their best works were painted. This documentary was produced to accompany Tate Britain’s current exhibition celebrating the 250th anniversary of the year they were both born.
We are promised a close up view of many paintings, sketchbooks and personal items and, through interviews with experts, to find out about their lives, legacies - and some rivalry between them!
