The Hay Wain

The Hay Wain, John Constable, 1821
The Top Gear clowns are thrashing some old hatchbacks, and Richard Hammond puts his in the ditch. This prompts James May to comment (11-12 minute marks) that if John Constable had lived today, he would have painted that scene and called it "Hey! Wayne!", so naturally I have to go find out who John Constable is, and why "Hey! Wayne!" is funny.
