"View of Exeter Cathedral" is a watercolor painting by the English artist Cornelius Varley, created in the early 19th century. Varley, born in 1781, was known for his detailed landscapes and architectural studies, and this work is a fine example of his adept skill in capturing the grandeur of ecclesiastical buildings and the atmosphere of their settings. The painting depicts Exeter Cathedral, one of the great cathedrals of England, renowned for its Gothic architecture, including its long vaulted ceilings and intricate facades.

In "View of Exeter Cathedral," Varley's use of watercolor allows for a play of light and shadow that brings out the textures and contours of the cathedral's structure. His attention to detail not only in the cathedral itself but also in the surrounding environment, including figures that populate the scene, provides a glimpse into the daily life of the period and the cathedral's role within it. The artwork serves as both an architectural study and a historical document, reflecting the early 19th-century appreciation for medieval heritage and the burgeoning Gothic Revival movement in art and architecture.

Varley was a significant figure in the development of watercolor as a serious medium in British art. He was a founding member of the Old Watercolour Society (now the Royal Watercolour Society) and was influential in his time, though he is less well-known today than some of his contemporaries. "View of Exeter Cathedral" is a testament to his talent and his contribution to the British watercolor tradition. The painting is notable for its historical value, artistic merit, and as an example of Varley's work, which captured the essence of British landscapes and landmarks at a time of great change and appreciation for the nation's past.
