Another view by Witherigton of the same scene is in Tate, acquired with the Paul Oppé Collection. The two works, on similalry sized sheets of grey paper, likely come from a sketchbook, used on the spot as Witherington observed this scene of gravel working. Unlike some of his rural scenes, this drawing shows a very real scene of people at work.
