Constable and Turner are both remarkable for their perfect imaginative , THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY < H o u OS o H w w X H ?^ O u o Range of our Imaginative Sympathy. 165 sympathy with common life and work. In Constable the range is narrow, but the knowl- edge is most intimate and familiar. He knew windmills and watermills like a miller, and thoroughly understood the life of farm-servants and boatmen on the banks of his well-beloved Stour. One of the finest incidents in his pictures, the "leaping horse, " is due to his acquaintance with a strictly practical matter, namely, that the fields through which the Stour passes were enclosed by barriers to prevent the cattle from straying, and that the horses were taught to leap these barriers because there were no gates. So far the incident is a simple fact, and the reader may ask what it has to do with imagination. It was treated imaginatively by the artist, who was careful to display the nobility of the horse with the dignity of his harness, ornamented about the collar with crimson fringe.
