Robert Collinson is a Realism artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Robert Collinson painted quiet scenes of everyday life and places in the 1800s. Try his *Stray Rabbits* (1857), where a few rabbits wander a simple yard, or *Buildings in the Grounds of the South Kensington Museum in 1862*, which captures the museum’s brick buildings in soft light. He also recorded *Ordered on Foreign Service* (1863), a snapshot of buildings and people in transit. Tap *Buildings in the Grounds of the South Kensington Museum in 1862* to step into his measured, unflashy world.
