David Cox

David Cox was active as an artist and draftsman over a thirty-year span, with documented production dates ranging from 1783 to 1813. The surviving known representation of his output in major institutions includes a diverse array of media.

In museum collections, David Cox is represented by fifteen documented works, specifically one painting, nine drawings, and five books. This output suggests a practice encompassing both standalone graphic works and published materials. Examples of his documented drawings and prints include Hillside and Trees, The School Walk, and the landscapes Llanberis and Landschap met reizigers. His genre scenes, such as A Cart with Two Horses near a Windmill, are also preserved.

The historical significance of David Cox's work is affirmed by its inclusion in prominent international institutions. Materials related to the artist are held in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Rijksmuseum. Because many of these historic David Cox prints and drawings are now considered to be in the public domain, they remain a source for study and are often available as high-quality prints or downloadable artwork.
