- In 2010, Guy Peppiatt Fine Art had a watercolour of 'A Boulder near Ambleside, Lake District' (formerly with Spink in 2000, no 65 in their 'Feeling trhough the Eye- the New Landscape in Britain 1800-1830'. It was a close view of the boulder, overhung with branches, and may have dated to the same visit as a view of a cottage, inscribed 'near Ambleside' and dated to c. 1806, now in the Dove Cottage and Wordsworth Museum, Grasmere.
