Cox travelled throughout Yorkshire in September 1844 visiting and executing views of Bolton Abbey, Bolton Bridge and Knaresborough, examples of which are in Birmingham Museums & Art Gallery and The Whitworth Art Gallery, Manchester.
Holbrook Gaskell (1813-1909), a successful engineer and manufacturer from Liverpool, formed what was considered one of the finest collections of paintings in the north of England. It included important works by artists such as Bonington, Constable, Cox, Gainsborough and Turner, and early British portraits.
For other David Cox watercolours see lots 155-7 and 161.
