Parlem de Pintura...
Barend Cornelis Koekkoek (Middelburg, 11 d'octubre de 1803 - Kleve, 5 d'abril de 1862) va ser un pintor holandès. Conegut al llarg de la seva vida amb l'etiqueta del "príncep de la pintura de paisatge", es va formar amb el seu pare Johannes Hermanus Koekkoek. El 1817 es va matricular a l'Acadèmia de Dibuix de Middelburg on va rebre formació d'Abraham Krayestein. El 1822 es va traslladar a Amsterdam on va estudiar 4 anys a la Koninklijke Academie van Beeldende Kunsten iniciant la seva carrera de pintor a partir del 1824. Ràpidament es va especialitzar en pintura de paisatges concentrant-se en les diferents estacions de l'any i en com aquestes modificaven l'entorn natural. Sovint va emfatitzar la grandesa de la naturalesa vers petites figures humanes en un clar sentit al·legòric romàntic. Guardonat en diverses ocasions, va gaudir d'ampli reconeixement al seu país i va treballar pel rei Friedrich-Wilhelm IV de Prussia, pel Tsar Alexander II i pel rei Willem II. Els seus germans Hermanus Koekkoek i Marinus Adrianus Koekkoek van ser pintors. Barend Cornelis va morir a Kleve l'abril de 1862.

Parlem de Música...
Samuel Wesley (Bristol, 24 de febrer de 1766 - London, 11 d'octubre de 1837) va ser un organista i compositor anglès de l'època georgiana tardana. Fill del conegut metodista i escriptor d'himnes Charles Wesley, nét de Samuel Wesley (poeta de l'últim període de Stuart) i nebot de John Wesley, el fundador de l'església metodista, va mostrar bon talent musical des de ben petit. Tocava el violí i l'orgue i va treballar com a director d'orquestra i professor de música. Moltes de les seves composicions més conegudes van ser escrites per a l'església, incloent el motet In exitu Israel. Les seves composicions seculars inclouen madrigal en cinc parts O singe unto mie roundelaie basat en el poema ben conegut de Thomas Chatterton. El 1788 Wesley va ser iniciat en la maçoneria en la Lògia d'Antiguitat. El Duc de Sussex el va nomenar Gran Organista el 1812, però va renunciar al càrrec el 1818. El seu fill, Samuel Sebastian Wesley, va ser també compositor i, com el seu pare, es va especialitzar en la música d'orgue i d'església. Al llarg de la seva vida va ser anomenat per alguns com "el Mozart anglès" tot i que amb aquesta etiqueta també es va conèixer a Linley Jr. Samuel Wesley va morir a Londres l'octubre de 1837.
