Distinguish between the "scale" of the vision of both John Constable and J. M. W. Turner
What will be an ideal response?
Essay responses should include these points:
• Constable's work is "close," meaning it has a local feel, familiar.
• Turner's work emphasizes the exotic and remote and is sometimes alienating.
• Human figures (if any) within Turner's work are dwarfed by the strong presence of nature.
• While nature is the emphasis with both works, Turner's perspective is much more forceful.
• Constable depicts nature as peaceful, pastoral, and bucolic, while Turner's work depicts nature as strong and much greater than the presence of humans.
