Thomas Sidney Cooper [1803-1902] was an English landscape painter noted for his images of cattle and farm animals. This earned him the name "Cow Cooper"--hence the vignette of cows on his letterhead. He was born in Canterbury, Kent and his home, Vernon Holme, Harbledown, Kent, which is now a school, is listed among the sites to see when visiting Canterbury. Very good .
