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. — —

Meindert Hobbema's Avenue at Middelharnis (fig. 101) was in Sir Robert Peel's collection by 1834. Cox probably would have seen the painting when it was exhibited at the British Institution in London in 1835 (no. 19), although Solly reports that Cox obtained special permission from Sir Robert to copy it.1 Actually, Cox's watercolor is not a copy but a paraphrase. Although he incorporates most of the elements of Hobbema's original, Cox makes the countryside appear more expansive, in line with his own taste for flat, open landscapes. He includes the figure to the right tending vines, but Hobbema's hunter and dog walking down the avenue toward the viewer are replaced by Cox with his frequent motif of a mounted figure riding away from the viewer.
