Alfred Egerton Cooper

Born: 1883
Died: 1974

Alfred Egerton Cooper was a famous portrait painter, one of whose many paintings of Sir Winston Churchill is in the National Portrait Gallery - "Cooper succeeded where many failed: WSC liked all his works." He went to the Royal College of art where he won a prize judged by John Singer Sargant. Sargant was most impressed with Cooper and offered him a job has his studio assistant. This gave him the help his career needed and  introduced him to London society and his future clients. He painted into his nineties!
