Ladbrooke, Robert
(b Norwich, 1769; d Norwich, 11 Oct 1842). English painter and printmaker. He was apprenticed to a painter, printer and engraver called White. In 1792 he witnessed John Crome’s marriage to Phoebe Berney, and on 3 October 1793 he himself married his first wife, Mary Berney (d 1807), Phoebe’s sister. A full evaluation of his work is hampered by a lack of surviving recognized examples. Four of his views of Norwich, one dated 1806, were aquatinted by Samuel Alken.
