ABOUT THE ARTIST
Robert Mann was born in 1841 in Handsworth, Birmingham, where he lived for the majority of his life.

Unfortunately, we haven't as yet, managed to trace the year of his death, but it was after 1911.
He exhibited 23 paintings at the Royal Society of Artists in Birmingham between 1869 and 1892.
