This man collected books, played cricket, went to church and liked to sit down. I wonder where the church is? The spire is similar to Salisbury Cathedral. At the base of one of the books is the name Kelmscott, which was the press established by William Morris to publish illuminated books in limited editions, so Robert was probably a wealthy collector.
