An oil copy of John Constable’s pastoral landscape The Cornfield, executed on board. The scene features a central woodland path with a boy drinking from a stream, a flock of sheep with a sheepdog, and a golden cornfield visible in the distance beneath a bright sky. The work is rendered with textured impasto brushwork. The painting is housed in a substantial gilt metal effect composition frame of ornate scrolling foliate and shell design. The lower right corner bears a signature in white paint reading L. Stephenson. The verso of the board features a handwritten ink title THE CORNFIELD (AFTER CONSTABLE) and an aged paper label inscribed THE CORNFIELD AFTER CONSTABLE BY LEN STEPHENSON.
