Artist
J. Cousins
J. Cousins is a Romanticism artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This British artist in the late 1700s recorded ancient Roman ruins with careful lines and cross-hatched shadows. Two drawings here trace the same crumbling arch near Rome—one from 1778, another from 1779—alongside an untitled sheet of column fragments. Their straightforward method sticks to structure over flourish, letting walls and vaults speak for themselves. Next, tap “Ancient ruins in and near Rome (1778-9, Drawing)” to step into the same sunlit sites they sketched.
