David Cox, OWS,
British 1783-1859-
Crossing the Moor; and A figure on horseback in an expansive hillside landscape, possibly depicting 'Brixton Hill';

Provenance:

Note:
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).
