These included the Tuthill Prize at the Chicago International Watercolour Exhibition in 1928, and in 1947, a silver medal at the Paris Salon. Having carried out war commission work for the Canadian government in World War I, Richmond went on to paint and lecture in Canada in the mid-1920s and several years later in America.
