Description

David Cox, OWS, 
British 1783-1859- 

Crossing the Moor; and A figure on horseback in an expansive hillside landscape, possibly depicting 'Brixton Hill';

David Cox studied under John Varley (1778-1842), and was clearly heavily influenced by the latter's approach, becoming, like Varley, one of the most significant British watercolourists of his time and beyond. He was also a major figure in the Birmingham School of landscape artists, alongside Thomas Baker (1809-1864) and Thomas Creswick (1811-1869).
