Robinson William Heath (1872-1944) was a renowned British artist and illustrator, known for his whimsical and imaginative works. His illustrations brought to life various scenarios, from everyday situations to fantastical adventures. In "Flat Life, " Robinson William Heath depicted the ingenious idea of how the tenant of the top flat could enjoy all the amenities of a back garden through clever litho techniques.
