1900 - 1920
Description

label on the rear sailor boy Mick Robert Herni Cozad 1927 Corrymore House Achill Island.

We are of the opinion it’s a studio work probably by one of Cozad’s pupils at Art Students League. Painted early 20th century circa 1920.

Discover the beauty and skill of the renowned artist studio of Robert Henry Cozad’s work with this stunning portrait painting. This oil on canvas piece brings to life the sailor boy, Mick, in vivid detail. Bringing a sense of calm and peace to any home or office, this painting will be sure to enhance any space.

The painting captures the unique spirit and personality of the young sailor, with a softness and gentleness that showcases the artist’s great skill. The brushwork is realistic but also captures the imagination with its vibrancy and bright colours. Mick’s eyes and smile are particularly notable, while the warm and inviting hues bring the scene to life.

Each painting is carefully produced to exacting standards in a studio that Robert Henry Cozad established in his hometown of Midwest City, Ohio. Every brushstroke is carefully chosen to bring out the best in the portrait, creating art that celebrates human life and spirit.

A beautiful addition to any home or office, this painting. Own a piece of history that is part of a celebrated artist’s life’s work. Add a sense of wonder to your space with the talented studio work of Robert Henry Cozad.

FAQs

Early twentieth-century portraiture in America, particularly linked to the Ashcan Movement, emphasised realistic, direct depictions of everyday subjects. Artists utilised expressive brushwork, muted backgrounds, and strong tonal contrasts to capture candid human character rather than formal, idealised poses.

Portraits from this era were typically executed using oil paints ground with linseed oil on natural linen or cotton canvas stretched over wooden stretcher bars. Frames were frequently constructed from timber covered with moulded gesso composition and finished with gold leaf gilding.

Authenticity is evaluated through physical construction markers, including age-appropriate craquelure patterns across the paint film, natural oxidisation of the canvas reverse, period stretcher joints, and hand-moulded gesso detailing on the frame.

An antique portrait can be positioned above a sideboard or integrated into a gallery wall alongside modern art to create visual interest. Juxtaposing rich gilded frames against plain neutral or dark painted walls highlights the artwork texture while maintaining a balanced living space.

Oil paintings should be displayed away from direct sunlight, radiators, and high humidity to prevent canvas distortion or varnish yellowing. Dusting should be performed gently using a soft, dry camel-hair brush, avoiding water or chemical cleaning solvents entirely.
