Rawdon Lubbock Brown (25 Jan 1806 in London – 25 August 1883 in Venice) was a British antiquarian.
He was born in London, the second child of Hugh William Brown and Anna Eliza Lubbock.
He came to Venice in 1833 to find the gravestone of Thomas Mowbray, the banished Duke of Norfolk mentioned in Shakespeare's play Richard II.
[2] In 1838, he bought the Palazzo Dario, but sold it four years later due to lack of funds.
He aggregated these reports to create the publication: A Calendar of State Papers and Manuscripts relating to English Affairs existing in the Archives of Venice and Northern Italy.
