22355k,l. [set 2 chromolithograph prints c.1890] Pair of two large U. S. Life-Saving Service prints by Fred S. Cozzens, 1890 as reproduced by the Illustrated American Supplement, 1890. The original paintings were done in 1887 by renowned marine artist Fred S. Cozzens (1856-1928) who studied at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in New York . Cozzens did many watercolors of yachting scenes and some views of the U. S. Life-Saving Service as we see here. Both are large 10 1/2″ x 15″, original 1890 color prints from original paintings. One print is entitled “Hold Fast There” [launching to the wreck], and the other “Now Then Boys” [returning with the rescued passengers]. These would look wonderful framed for a display or wall decoration. Clean, crisp, a superb pair. (F-). $224 pr.
