He attended a secondary school in France; when the family returned to England and his predisposition to painting and drawing was discovered. He attended Saint John's Wood School of Art and then one of the most important art institutions in Britain, the Royal Academy of Arts. To complete his artistic education he moved to Paris and attended the prestigious Académie Julian for three years. In France he came into contact with the art of Symbolism of Pierre Puvis de Chavannes and Paul Gauguin and with Japanese art. He was also influenced by the post-impressionist group of Nabis artists around Paul Sérusier.
From here he travelled to Italy, where he discovered tempera painting and studied Giotto and Michelangelo. In the following years in Paris his techniques became more varied, Robinson learned to work on plaster, with charcoal pencils, with oil, pastel and watercolours. After his return to England he exhibited his watercolours at the Royal Society of Painters in Water Colours, which from then on showed some of his works at their annual exhibition for years. Robinson also worked as a luxury designer and stage designer, for example for the play "The Blue Bird" at the Theatre Royal Haymarket in London. He later also created the illustrations for the play. In 1915 he was commissioned with his probably biggest work, fresco paintings for the National Gallery of Ireland for the Middlesex hospital (in this hospital Winston Churchill should be treated later). It took the artist five years for the wall paintings "Acts of Mercy", and they remained there for almost 100 years - until the building was demolished. They were then acquired by Henry Wellcome for his Wellcome Library. During these years he also worked as a muralist for the Dublin Art Gallery, for which he was to paint the Arrival of St. Patrick in Ireland. The work never came to fruition, but Robinson's "The Landing of Saint Patrick in Ireland" is considered the preparatory concept for it.
His works of art almost always contain elements of symbolism and ambiguity. The paintings, especially his watercolour works, radiate a pleasant silence and calm. He showed them regularly at the Royal Academy of Arts and the Society of British Painters, and had a total of three solo exhibitions. Posthumously the National Gallery in London showed six of his works, including four panels of the "Acts of Mercy". Robinson counts among the most interesting and original English artists of the early 20th century. The Englishman died at the age of 65 in London.
