Alexander Cooper

Alexander Cooper (baptized Dec. 11, 1609, London, Eng.—died 1660, Stockholm, Swed.) was an English miniaturist, elder brother of Samuel Cooper.

By 1631 or 1632 Cooper was in Holland, where he painted a series of miniatures (now in Berlin) of the king and queen of Bohemia and their seven children. During 1644–46 he was at The Hague and in 1647 went to Stockholm, where he worked for Queen Christina and her successor, Charles X.
