Thomas Sidney Cooper

Thomas Sidney Cooper CVO RA (26 September 1803 – 7 February 1902) was an English landscape painter from Canterbury, noted for his images of cattle and farm animals.

His most typical subjects ("repetitive" according to Mallalieu) are small groups of cows or sheep at rest, or often the two mixed together, occupying most of the picture space. He painted in both oils and watercolour, with oils predominating. Many are set in the marshes around Canterbury.
