Arthur Douglas Peppercorn (28 February 1847 - 1926) was a London-born landscape painter who has been likened to Corot.[1] He was one of a group who had annual exhibitions at the gallery of the Royal Watercolour Society, including also the landscape painter James Aumonier, James Stevens Hill and John Leslie Thomson.[2] He died in 1926 in Ashtead, Surrey.[3]

His daughter was the international concert pianist Gertrude Peppercorn (1879–1966), a pupil of Tobias Matthay who made her concert debut at St James's Hall, London in 1897.[4] In 1907 she married the writer Stacy Aumonier (1877–1928), the nephew of James Aumonier.[5] Another daughter was Maud Peppercorn, a suffragette. She married the chemical engineer Sir Arthur Duckham (1879–1932).
