Robert Ives Browne is one of the lesser known Hague impressionists. He was born in Rotterdam and moved to The Hague in 1888, where he attended the academy and was taught by Frits Jansen, among others. There he came under the influence of the prevailing impressionism and painted smoothly designed landscapes, figure pieces, nudes and cityscapes. The painter was a member of numerous painters' associations, participated in exhibitions at home and abroad and was selected, together with Tholen and Akkeringa, to represent the Netherlands at the World Exhibition in San Francisco.
