Artists Biography
Henry Edward Spernon Tozer
British fl.1892 - c.1910
Tozer was known to have lived and worked around St. Just in Cornwall. Here he found solace and inspiration in the unspoilt Cornish countryside. Tozer searched the area for suitable subjects and often used cottage interiors. He painted his subjects in an intense and detailed style, particularly concentrating on interiors. Tozer shared his poetic and romantic feelings for the cottage interior with a few artists of the period, though his figures and compositions are much more elaborate than most.
