About the Artist:
Thomas Robins the Elder (1716-1770) was born near Cheltenham & worked mostly around Bath. Sometimes called the Limner of Bath, he is remembered for his sometime naive paintings of country houses & gardens framed with rococo borders of wild flowers, tendrils, leaves, birds, shells & butterflies. His works depict various gardens & seem to provide the only visual record of a brief Rococo period in English garden design. Apart from his paintings, there is almost no evidence that British Rococo gardens ever existed.
In 1748, Robins painted the Rococo garden at Painswick House that had been created by Benjamin Hyett II.
His son, Thomas Robins the Younger (1748-1806), followed his father in his style of work.
