The 200-year-old pencil sketch of a view across Dover harbour was discovered during a house clearance
A sketch by the English landscape artist John Constable that was found in a suitcase during a house clearance is to be sold at auction.
The pencil sketch, a view across Dover harbour towards the castle above the town, is more than 200 years old. It is one of a series of sketches the artist made in April 1803 during a voyage on the East India Company ship Coutts from London to Deal.
