The Tate Britain has purchased “Salisbury Cathedral from the Water Meadows,” a 1831 master work by painter John Constable, for the price of $23.1 million. Previously held by the National Gallery, the work will embark on a national tour, through Colchester, London, Salisbury and Cardiff. ”It is unimaginable that this particular painting could have ended up anywhere except a British public collection.” Said Heritage Lottery Fund chair Jenny Abramsky, who helped fund the purchase.
