This view of Ullswater was made on a tour of the Lake District; at least one other picture from this trip is recorded. In 1781 Barret exhibited a painting at the Royal Academy of a <i>View of Windermere Lake, in Westmoreland, the effect, the sun beginning to appear in the morning, with the mists breaking and dispersing (no.40)</i>. A gouache of a similar view of Ullswater, in the National Gallery of Ireland,  was the source for an engraving by Samuel Middiman for <i><a href="https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q28551766" class="extiw" title="d:Q28551766"><span title="book by Samuel Middiman">Select views in Great Britain</span></a></i>.</div>
