Thomas Gainsborough (1727-88)
Cornard Wood, near Sudbury, Suffolk c.1748
This painting is generously lent to the exhibition by the National Gallery, London. Gainsborough’s finest landscape painting, it is rich in colour and detail. The painting is reunited with its preparatory study for the first time since Gainsborough worked on the painting in his studio in 1748.
