366• Hubert Coop [1872-1953]East coast hay barges unloading on the Thames, St Paul’s in the distancesignedwatercolour37 x 52cm.
£600 - 800Thames barges played an important part in life along the river and in Essex by making use of the many creeks and inlets to collect produce from the farms and take it to markets and into the City. The barges were flat bottomed wooden craft to ensure that they could navigate the shallow inlets by sailing in as little as three feet of water and then lying on the mud without tilting. The distinctive barge rigging incorporates a large topsail, a mainsail and foresail on two masts. The rusty red colour is due to the waterproofing traditionally used on these sails.A regular cargo was hay and straw from the Essex countryside to service the thousands of horses and stables in London. Although the cargo was relatively light, it was bulky and it was common to see barges loaded with twelve feet of hay on the decks with the helmsman at the wheel totally blind relying on information from a crewman perched on top of the hay.

The sketch, Ponies and Donkey in a woodland clearing, is recorded by Graham Reynolds as ‘Landscape with horses’ in the Yale Catalogue Raisonne with a date of 1810. The date, Oct. 8th 1810, was noted on an old label,(now believed lost) by Lionel Bicknell Constable (Constable’s son) who presumably copied this from an original inscription by Constable on the back of the sketch, but was then covered, some years later, possibly when conserved by William Down Ltd., in 1965, with a lining. Reynolds notes that Constable was in Suffolk on October 8th 1810. Reynolds also informs us (on page 128 of the same book) that this is one of three dated, plein-air landscapes made in Suffolk that year (the other two are 10.4 and 10.5, dated 27th Sept. and 30th Sept. respectively). This sketch is close in handling to the other two sketches painted that year.
We suspect this sketch was painted by Constable on one of the lanes in and around East Bergholt. However it does have certain compositional similarities with two other oil sketches Constable made circa 1810 in the nearby village of Stoke by Nayland (Reynolds 11.44 and 11.45). So it is just possible this subject also depicts Stoke by Nayland though, if so, perhaps odd that Constable should omit the church with its tall tower on the left hand side.
