Rathbone was a Liverpool artist, designer, and poet. He founded the Della Robbia Pottery with the sculptor Conrad Dressler in Birkenhead, 1893 (see lots 158-160). He spearheaded the 1890-1 campaign to buy The Triumph of the Innocents by William Holman Hunt for the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool, where his portrait by Hunt now hangs.
