Original Arthur Glazier Folk Art Reverse Glass Oil Painting British Sailing Ship
Much of Glazier’s folk art was painted on wood, so this is an unusual medium for him. The work was done in the style of an antique reverse glass painting. In the water, the artist has painted some sea creatures, including a fish, hammerhead shark, several whales, and a mermaid. I believe the piece of glass the artist used was antique, as it has some bubbles and the look of old glass. The glass is mounted in an old wooden frame that measures 25 1/2″ x 18 1/8″. The painted glass portion measures approximately 22″ x 14 1/2″. The painting is signed A. GLAZIER in the lower right corner. It’s guaranteed to be an original Arthur Glazier work of art. Arthur Glazier was originally from Grand Rapids, Michigan. He was a Graphic Artist for the Corps of Engineers in Washington, D. Where he designed the shield logo that is still in use today. He retired to East Berlin, Pennsylvania, where he painted prolifically for 35 years. Condition of this reverse glass folk art painting is EXCELLENT. There are just a few nicks of minor paint loss that are not very noticeable. The frame is also in good condition, however, I would recommend mounting the glass more securely and replacing the cardboard backing. Overall, this collectible work of art looks fantastic and displays beautifully. Please take a close look at the many photos I’ve provided and judge condition for yourself. I haven’t been able to find any other examples of Glazier paintings that were done on glass, so I believe this medium was not used often. See my other listings. For more great items!

It was painted circa 1850 and is done in watercolor and gouache. This came to us in what appears to be the original maple frame. The painting measures 18 1/2X27 inches. It is initialed in the lower left corner as E. The overall painting is in good shape, there are two areas of toning which certainly came from the original wooden backing boards. This came to us framed, we have not taken it apart. The maple has a flaw in the bottom right corner but for its age the colors are still rich, a highly detailed work.

This one is on glass; the other is smaller and on board. This diorama is a wonderful piece of antique Folk Art, a survivor of an art form that is becoming quite rare. This fabulous piece is in an old, faded Victorian period frame and was created on glass. The piece is not behind glass, it is not a shadowbox, and it is currently a little dirty from years of storage. The sails are cream colored, showing discoloration and grime from age. The hull is painted black. The front sail is missing its mast and the front is missing the browsprit; the outlines of both can still be seen on the painting (with a few small areas of paint loss). The ocean is very choppy, dark green and blue with white caps. There are painted clouds in the sky and a few sea gulls. There are areas of paint loss in the background, as shown in the photos. This is not signed, as far as I can tell. I believe this easily dates to the last quarter of the 19th century, if not earlier. This piece is quite dirty. I gave it a very light cleaning but it would benefit and look much brighter with additional cleaning. The frame is also dirty and discolored with chips and bumps. The back has remnants of its old paper dust covering and the painting is currently backed with corrugated cardboard. The piece (including the frame) is 18″ h x 21″ w. This is an amazing piece that reflects the sea going industry which was and is such a big part of south eastern Massachusetts, Cape Cod and the islands. A genuine piece of Americana. Fresh from an old Massachusetts estate. Please see my other items for more vintage and antique items found during my travels throughout New England.

This one is on board; the other on glass. This diorama is a wonderful piece of antique Folk Art, a survivor of an art form that is becoming quite rare. This fabulous piece is in an old, faded, gilded Victorian period frame and was created on board. The piece is not behind glass, it is not a shadowbox, and it is currently a little dirty from years of storage. The sails are cream colored, showing discoloration and grime from age. The hull is painted black with a stripe and two tiny cabins on the deck; the black paint exhibits craquelure (alligatoring). The front sail is missing a small piece at the top; its outline can still be seen on the painting. The ocean is very choppy, dark green and blue with white caps. The lighthouse stands of an outcropping of rocks in the lower left of the piece; the lighthouse is a carved piece of wood. There are painted clouds in the sky and a few sea gulls. This is not signed, as far as I can tell. I believe this easily dates to the last quarter of the 19th century, if not earlier. This piece is quite dirty. I gave it a very light cleaning but it would benefit and look much brighter with additional cleaning. The frame is also dirty and discolored with chips and bumps. The back is wooden board, which I believe is the back of the painting. The piece (including the frame) is 12.5″ h x 18.5″ w.
