Sun, Wind, and Rain: The Art of David Cox was the first major exhibition since 1983 devoted to this important figure in the development of British landscape and watercolor painting. Throughout a long and productive career, Cox (1783–1859) made a specialty of capturing the effects of weather and light in the English and Welsh countryside. This exhibition included more than one hundred of his watercolors and drawings and approximately a dozen paintings. The works were drawn from the Center’s collection, as well as from public and private collections in Great Britain and the United States. — —
Born in Birmingham, Cox began as a watercolor painter in London in 1804, the founding year of the Society of Painters in Water-Colours, of which he would later become a member and regular exhibitor. Through the 1830s his watercolors reflected many of the dominant trends in British landscape and watercolor painting. Toward the end of that decade he took up oil painting, and in 1841 returned to Birmingham to pursue his work in the new medium. The quality of his landscape painting in oils has yet to be fully recognized. He by no means abandoned watercolor painting, and in these same years his watercolors gained a remarkable boldness, gravity, and freedom of technique that set them apart from current fashion. In the last decades of his life he stood out as one of watercolors most original and distinctive practitioners. — —

Cox’s interest in copying and learning from the great seventeenth-century masters of landscape painting, mentioned by his biographers in regard to his early enthusiasm for the works of Gaspard Dughet, was not confined to the beginning of his career. This copy of the painting by Nicolas Poussin in Sir George Beaumont’s collection was probably painted in the autumn of 1821, when the work was exhibited at the Royal Academy. Cox was not the only artist interested in copying the painting; on 20 September John Constable mentioned the painting in a letter to his friend and patron John Fisher: ---
There is a noble N. Poussin at the Academy—a solemn, deep, still, summer’s noon—with large umbrageous trees, & a man washing his feet at a fountain near them—through the breaks of the trees is mountain scenery & clouds collecting about them with the most enchanting effects possible—indeed it is the most affecting picture I almost ever stood before. It cannot surely be saying too much when I assert that his landscape is full of religious & moral feeling, & shows how much of his own nature God has implanted in the mind of man.… I should like, & will if possible possess a fac simile of it. I must make time—the opportunity will not happen again. ---
Constable does not seem to have produced a copy.
