Note: Julian Trevelyan, born in Surrey in 1910, spent the majority of his adult life residing beside the River Thames. At the age of 25, he bought his home and studio, Durham Wharf, located on Chiswick Mall. The river and its environs served as a perpetual source of inspiration for Trevelyan, who frequently produced various pictures of scenes along the West London stretch of the Thames.

The present print is part of the Thames Suite, a collection of eleven etchings that illustrate Trevelyan's fascination with the river and its dynamic landscapes. "Richmond" portrays the river and its surrounding greenery. The water is teeming with life and depicts pleasure boaters, swans and even a paddle steamer can be seen passing under Richmond Bridge.
