In the popular imagination English landscape painting from the 18th century onwards typifies English art, inspired largely from the love of the pastoral and mirroring as it does the development of larger country houses set in a pastoral rural landscape. Two English Romantics are largely responsible for raising the status of landscape painting worldwide: John Constable (1776-1837) and J. M. W. Turner (1775-1851), who is credited with elevating landscape painting to an eminence rivalling history painting. Other notable 18th and 19th century landscape painters include: George Arnald (1763-1841); John Linnell (1792-1882), a rival to Constable in his time; George Morland (1763-1804), who developed on Francis Barlow's tradition of animal and rustic painting; Samuel Palmer (1805-1881); Paul Sandby (1731-1809), who is recognised as the father of English watercolour painting; and subsequent watercolourists John Robert Cozens (1752-1797), Turner's friend Thomas Girtin (1775-1802), and Thomas Heaphy (1775–1835).
