  • Samuel John Milton Brown was born in Liverpool on April 13th, 1873. He apprenticed at a firm of lithographic artists at the age of 14. Much of his early life was spent on Liverpool docks, studying ships’ rigging, which gave him a great depth of knowledge on the intricacies of the subject. Brown took formal art lessons at the Liverpool School of Art, studying under John Minnie, a well-known engraver and landscape artist.
