"View of Eton College" is a watercolor painting by the British artist John Varley (1778–1842), created in 1798. This work is part of Varley's extensive oeuvre, which primarily focuses on landscapes and is known for its romantic depiction of the British countryside and notable landmarks. The painting captures Eton College, one of the most prestigious schools in England, located in Berkshire near Windsor. Varley's portrayal of Eton College is notable for its detailed rendering of the architectural features of the school buildings set against the backdrop of the English landscape, reflecting the artist's keen interest in combining architectural precision with atmospheric effects.

John Varley was a central figure in the early 19th-century British art scene, not only as an artist but also as a teacher and a theorist. His approach to landscape painting was innovative for its time, emphasizing the emotional and atmospheric potential of watercolor, a medium that was gaining popularity in England during this period. "View of Eton College" exemplifies Varley's skill in using watercolors to achieve a sense of depth and atmosphere, making the architectural and natural elements of the scene harmonize in a serene composition.

The painting is significant within Varley's body of work as it showcases his transition from more topographical and detailed studies towards a more expressive and atmospheric style, which would influence the next generation of British watercolorists. "View of Eton College" not only captures a moment in the history of one of Britain's oldest schools but also reflects the broader artistic and cultural shifts occurring in Britain at the turn of the 19th century. Through works like this, John Varley contributed to the development of the British landscape tradition, emphasizing the emotional and poetic possibilities of the natural and built environment.
