Constable spent the summer of 1806 staying with various friends, family and patrons. In early June he was with the Cobbold family, but by the end of the month he was with the Hobsons, before visiting his uncle and Aunt James and Mary Gubbins and their children, at their home in Epsom, Surrey, in August. During each of these visits Constable appears to have been primarily engaged with capturing the human figure and he produced numerous rapidly executed figure studies, mainly in pencil, such as the present drawing.
Mrs Elizabeth Cobbold was one of Constable’s earliest friends and was married to John Cobbold, who ran the Cliff Brewery in Ipswich. John had been married before and had two daughters by this previous marriage, Harriet (b. 1785) and Sophie (b. 1787) and Constable made numerous sketches of the girls engaged in various activities.
William Hobson was a builder who built Martello Towers and part of the London Docks. It is likely that Constable was introduced to the Hobson’s through a mutual friend of the Cobbold’s. The Hobson’s had sixteen children, of which the eldest girls were Ann (b. 1785), Susanna (b. 1786), Laura (b. 1788), Lydia (b. 1789) and Emma (B. 1791). Constable spent almost a month with the family at their home Markfield House, Tottenham from the end of June. It is not certain whether he was there to undertake a possible commission, or as a temporary drawing master to the family. However, he appears to have again spent most of his time in sketching the family, rather than in exploring the surrounding landscape.
From this period there are at least three surviving sketchbooks (Musée du Louvre, Paris) as well as a number of single sheets and sheets from dismembered sketchbooks. The drawings are mostly of sketches of the various members of the three families, engaged in everyday pastimes, such as reading or sewing. While it has not been possible to identify for certain who has been depicted in the present drawing, it is likely to be either Harriet and Sophie Cobbold or alternatively two daughters of the Hobson family.
We are grateful to Anne Lyles for her help with this drawing.
