Explore: Robert Blemmell Schnebbelie

( - 1849)

British draftsman, watercolorist and illustrator Robert Blemmell Schnebbelie was the son of an artist who also lived and worked in London and may have come from an artistic family, as there were a number of artists and engravers with this surname. Schnebbelie painted watercolour views and made illustrations for ‘The Gentleman’s Magazine’ and Wilkinson's ‘Londina Illustrata’. His works include several coloured prints of London theatres. However, he died in poverty.
