1864
1955
Born in Sheerness, Kent, Henry Edward Spernon Tozer (H S Tozer) was the elder son of Henry Edwin TOZER. Unlike his father he does not seem to have spent much time in Cornwall, though he and his father and younger brother Eustace Arthur TOZER exhibited together in St Just in 1892.
A painter of interiors, mainly in watercolour, this artist is often confused with his father, owing to the similarity in their names.
Henry Edward Spernon Tozer died near Haslemere, Surrey, in 1955, aged 90.
