(Arthur William) Douglas Cooper, (20 February 1911 – 1 April 1984) was a British art historian, art critic and art collector.
Cooper mainly collected Cubist works. During World War II he worked first as an interrogator and subsequently as an investigator of the trade in stolen artworks.
After the war, Cooper and his partner, the renowned biographer John Richardson, bought a chateau in Provence and converted it into a gallery of early cubist art. There Cooper lived the life of a connoisseur collector, and made use of his personal acquaintance of artists–most notably Picasso and Leger– to write monographs on contemporary artists.
This is a very good book and I learned a lot from it. To love is not always easy and living God's love will help me to get closer to people and God. I have already given the book out to a friend to read. It is a great book to read and to share. We all need to learn to love better and only God can help us do that.
