Oarsman - J.C. Leyendecker Art Print
Couldn't load pickup availability
The Oarsman distills competitive rowing into a portrait of unwavering discipline. Painted in 1916, Joseph Christian Leyendecker strips away riverbanks and racing shells, leaving only an athlete, his oar, and the quiet certainty earned through relentless training.
A weathered rowing singlet, cream athletic shorts, and a heavy cable-knit sweater speak of cool mornings spent preparing for regattas long before spectators arrived. Sunlit blond hair and sculpted anatomy reveal Leyendecker's unmistakable command of editorial realism, forged during the height of American illustration.
Echoes of Ivy League rowing culture, collegiate athletics, vintage sporting traditions, and Beaux-Arts draftsmanship flow through every confident brushstroke, transforming this illustrated artwork into a striking celebration of endurance, craftsmanship, and early twentieth-century sporting life.
Origin Story
Wall Art Size Guides
Framed Art Prints
1. Vertical
Use the sawtooth hanger at the top middle on the back of the frame and hang it on a single screw or nail.
2. Horizontal
Hang the two sawtooth hangers on two screws or nails at the same heightPut two screws or nails in the wall at the same height, spaced the same distance apart as the two sawtooth hangers, then hang your print on them.
Framed Canvas
1. D-rings (most secure)
Screw a D-ring onto the back of the frame on the left and right, both at the same height. A ruler helps here. Then put two screws in the wall where you want your canvas, level with each other and spaced the same distance apart as the D-rings. A spirit level makes this easier. Finally, hook the D-rings onto the screws.
2. Straight onto screws
Keep it simple: put two screws in the wall at the same height and rest the inner lip at the top of the back of the frame on them.
