"Salisbury Cathedral from the Meadows" is an iconic oil painting by the English artist John Constable, completed in 1831. Renowned for his landscape paintings that capture the beauty of the English countryside, Constable infused this work with emotional intensity and atmospheric effects that reflect his deep connection to nature. The painting depicts the medieval Salisbury Cathedral under dramatic and turbulent skies, with the River Avon and local flora in the foreground, creating a juxtaposition of the transient and the eternal.

Measuring 101.6 cm × 127 cm (40.0 in × 50.0 in), the artwork is one of Constable's largest and most ambitious paintings. It is part of a series that includes several sketches and paintings of the same subject, each varying in mood and detail. "Salisbury Cathedral from the Meadows" was produced during a period of personal distress for Constable, following the death of his wife, Maria. The emotional turmoil is often thought to be reflected in the painting's tempestuous sky and the inclusion of a striking rainbow, which may symbolize hope and the promise of redemption.

The painting was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1831, where it received mixed reviews. Constable's innovative techniques, such as using thick impasto to render the foliage and clouds, were ahead of his time and influenced the development of landscape painting. Despite the initial mixed critical reception, the painting has since been recognized as a masterpiece of British art and an exemplar of Romanticism.

"Salisbury Cathedral from the Meadows" is now held in a public collection and has been displayed in various institutions. It was acquired for the nation by the Tate Gallery in 2013, following a major fundraising campaign, and is on long-term loan to the National Gallery in London. The painting's significance lies not only in its artistic merit but also in its reflection of Constable's personal vision and the broader cultural and historical context of early 19th-century England.
