COX, KENYON (1856 )

This article appears in Volume V07, Page 353 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: COR-CRE
COX, KENYON (1856 ) , American painter, was born at Warren,
Ohio
 , on the 27th of October 1856, being the son of Gen. Jacob Dolson Cox. He was a pupil of Carolus-Duran and of J. L. Gerbme in Paris from 1877 to 1882, when he opened a studio in New
York
 , subsequently teaching with much success in the Art Students' League. His earlier
work
  was mainly of the nude
drawn
  with great academic correctness in somewhat conventional colour. Receiving little encouragement for such pictures, he turned to mural decorative
work
 ,in which he achieved prominence. Among his better-known examples are the
frieze
  for the court room of the Appellate Court, New
York
 , and decorations for the Walker Art Gallery, Bowdoin College; for the Capitol at Saint Paul, Minnesota, and for other public and private buildings. He wrote with much authority on art topics, and is the author of the
critical
  reviews, Old Masters and New (1905) and Painters and Sculptors (1907), besides some poems. He became a National Academician in 1903. His wife, nee Louise H. King (b. 1865), whom he married in 1892, also became a figure and portrait-painter of note.
