About the Artist: William Sidney Cooper was a painter of landscapes
in both oil and watercolour,
usually with
the inclusion of sheep and cattle.
Although
he does not appear to be related
to Thomas
Sidney Cooper, certain books
list him as
being his second son. It can
also be said
that his subject matter is very
similar to
that of Thomas Sidney Cooper.
He exhibited
regularly at the Royal Academy
and Suffolk
Street between 1871 and 1908
with titles
including: "Springtime,
Isle of Wight",
1881, "The Avon at Ringwood",
1889,
"Twilight on the Thames",
1884.
An example of his work can be
found at the
Reading Museum.
