Overall Condition: Very Good / Excellent Condition Details: Surface grime and age toning Research: The Royal Academy Museum of Fine Art Weight: 25lb Measurements (LxWxH): 30 inches x 3 inches x 17 inches The painting is attributed to Thomas Sidney Cooper (1803 - 1902), a well-listed British painter. He studied at the Royal Academy in London. He then returned to Canterbury, where he was able to earn a living as a drawing-master and by the sale of sketches and drawings. In 1827 he settled in Brussels; but four years later he returned to London to live, and by showing his first picture at the Royal Academy (1833) began a prolonged career as an exhibitor. Cooper's name is mainly associated with pictures of cattle or sheep. He became ARA in 1845, and RA in 1867. He was commissioned by Queen Victoria and the Prince Consort to paint pictures of the royal herd of pedigree Jersey cows. The largest public collection of Cooper paintings is held by Canterbury City Council Museums and Galleries Service, in Canterbury, Kent, England. Terms & Conditions of the Auction: TEST |
