Richardson Junior trained under his father in Newcastle before moving to London in 1846. He travelled widely in Scotland and the north of England and later in the Swiss and Italian Alps and Lakes.

Located in the north-east of Scotland, the Findhorn is one of Scotland's longest rivers and flows into the Moray Firth.
