Edward William Cooke at Scheveningen, Holland

Edward William Cooke (1811-1880) was a British painter and gardener. Cooke was born in London. His father and uncle William Bernard Cooke were both welknown engravers and Cooke was raised in the company of artists. He was a precocious draughtsman and a skilled engraver from an early age, displayed an equal preference for marine subjects. Cooke began painting in oils in 1833, took formal lessons from James Stark in 1834.
He went on to travel and paint with great industry at home and abroad, indulging his love of the 17th-century Dutch marine artists with a visit to the Netherlands in 1837. He returned regularly over the next 35 years, studying the effects of the coastal landscape and light, as well as the works of the country's Old Masters, resulting in highly successful paintings.
