Varley had made several sketching tours through Wales, Yorkshire, and Northumberland.
During the summer months he rented a house at Twickenham and, along with his students, sketched by the bank of the Thames.
His later works are more composed examples of the picturesque ideal: here figures and sheep travel along a tree-lined road dappled by sunlight and shadow.
