The New Directory now offered, it is hoped, will be found on perusal as free from -errors as any work of a similar kind ; although they do not calculate on its being altogether faultless, the informa- tion it contains being derived from many hnndreds of individuals.

From an early age he received drawing lessons from Robert Greenlees and then attended evening classes at the Glasgow School of Art where Greenless was headmaster. In 1877 he enrolled at the Academie Julian in Paris where he studied under Carolus-Duran and learnt the importance of academic study and drawing from the model. His painting A Bead Stringer, Venice gained a honourable mention at the Salon in 1885 and was then shown in Glasgow. Mann returned to Britain and settled in the Oxfordshire/Berkshire borders in the village of Blewbury and established himself as a landscape and genre painter. Although thereafter living in England, he was consider to be one of the Glasgow Boys. He made many return trips to Scotland but also travelled extensively, visiting America and the Caribbean and making many trips to France, Spain and North Africa.
