Robert Browning (1812-1889) was one of the foremost British poets of the Victorian era, popular and respected to the point where there were "Browning Societies" dedicated to studying his works while he was still alive. He's arguably overshadowed in modern times by the poetry of his wife, Elizabeth Barrett "How do I love thee? Let me count the ways" Browning, though maybe I'm just not that well-versed in 19th-century poetry. Um, so to speak.
