See illustration Provenance: The collection of Sir Bruce Stirling Ingram OBE, MC (1877-1963) (Lugt 1405A) Sotheby`s 17th March 1965. Sir Bruce Stirling Ingram was editor of the Illustrated London News for 63 years. He was a prolific collector amassing over 3,000 works, primarily of maritime interest. Examples from his collection can be found in the National Maritime Museum. In 1803 John Constable spend time on the East Indiaman "The Coutts" accompanying his friend and the captain Robert Torin, on a tour around the Medway and Thames before the ship set sail for China. It is believed this work was one of almost 140 rapid compositions he created during the trip. "I was on board nearly a month and was much employed in making drawings of ships in all situations. I saw all sorts of weather. Some the most delightful and some the most melancholy. But such is the enviable state of a painter that he finds delight in every dress nature can possibly assume".
