Cooper

Cooper is an Impressionism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Samuel Palmer’s neighbor once called him a “little old man with a beard,” though he spent nights sneaking out to sketch under a moon he swore was green. This English draftsman squinted at ordinary fields until they hummed, his 1858 “River Scene, with Cattle” does exactly that, turning a muddy bank into a quiet symphony of dabs. Look up that single sheet and you’ll hear the hush before dusk.
