Although there are examples of Richard using a panorama format going back to 1918, the 1938 Redfern show seems to be a turning point where he starts to choose the format regularly, going on to use it for around 150 works.
 
There were three panoramas in the 1938 Refern show: 

• "Low Tide, Porthleven” (1937), the longest at approximately 50 x 178 cm
• "Mousehole Harbour, Cornwall” (1937), also quite large at 62 x 166 cm, now in Aberdeen Art Gallery, Scotland
• “Constantine, Cornwall” (1937) a little smaller at 46 x 126 cm, whereabouts unknown.
