In Walkers Pillar, Londonderry, Northern Ireland (1860), Wallis skillfully portrays the grandeur of this historical monument against a picturesque backdrop. Moving on to Glasgow, Scotland in 1886, his painting showcases The Bridge and Broomielaw Quay with intricate details that bring life to this bustling cityscape. Venturing into Switzerland's breathtaking scenery, Wallis transports us to The Lake of Lucerne in the 19th century. Through delicate brushstrokes and vibrant colors, he captures the tranquility and serenity of this mesmerizing lake. Continuing our journey through Switzerland's natural wonders, Pont d'Espagne in Pryrenees (19th century) reveals Wallis' ability to depict majestic mountains and cascading waterfalls with astonishing precision. The Abbey of Einsiedeln in Schwyz (1836) stands as a testament to Wallis' talent for capturing architectural marvels. His attention to detail brings out the intricacies of this sacred place. Tells Chapel at Lake Uri (1836) further exemplifies his mastery by showcasing the charm and simplicity of this Swiss chapel nestled amidst nature. Wallis also ventured beyond Europe's borders; he painted The Coastline at Hastings in East Sussex (1840), immortalizing its rugged cliffs against crashing waves. Across the Atlantic Ocean lies West Point on Hudson River as seen from USA (1837). Here we witness his ability to capture both natural beauty and man-made structures harmoniously. In New York Bay as seen from Telegraph Station (USA) in 1838, Wallis presents an enchanting view that encapsulates America's maritime allure.
