Biographical History

William Couper (1853-1942) was a sculptor in Florence, Italy and New York, N.Y.

Couper attended classes at the Cooper Institute in New York. In 1875, he won a scholarship to study at the Royal Academy at Munich, but soon took a place in the studio of Thomas Ball in Florence, Italy. Couper married Mr. Ball's daugher Eliza in 1878 and remained in Florence for 22 years before returning to New York to open a studio in 1897. Couper retired in 1913 and died later in 1942 in Easton, Md.
