Laurence Koe

British, 1863-1913

Lawrence E. Koe was a portrait painter and sculptor. He is listed as living in Brighton when he first exhibited at The Royal Academy in 1891, but by 1894 he had moved to London where he appears to have settled for the remainder of his life. Koe exhibited widely; over 20 times at The Royal Academy, but also at the R.O.I, The Royal Society of Artists in Birmingham and the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool. Most of his exhibited works were portraits and among his sitters were the wives of fellow artists Harold Speed RP (1872–1957) and Harold Piffard (fl. 1895–99). In 1896, Koe exhibited Venus and Tännhauser at the Royal Academy, now in the permanent collection in the Brighton Museum and Art and he showed a painting of Sappho two years later. He clearly shows the influence of other artists working at the same time, notably Singer Sargent, Arthur Hacker RA (1858–1919) and Herbert James Draper (1863–1920) who exhibited The Lament for Icarus (Tate Gallery) in the same year.
