Robinson was a leading stained glass artist and prominent figure on the Bristol art scene in the early years of the twentieth century. He is closely associated with the stained glass firm Joseph Bell & Co, becoming first a director then owner of the business. His work is very much in the spirit of the late ninteenth century Arts and Crafts Movement showing the influence of designers like William Morris and (particularly in the case of this impressive and fluid drawing) the work of Edward Burne-Jones.
