Eric Ravilious Landscape & Nature by Ella Ravilious

Eric Ravilious was a designer, painter, printmaker and illustrator best known for his depictions of the English landscape, particularly the South Downs. Drawing on the V&A’s collections, over 100 beautiful images in this book capture Ravilious’s deep enjoyment of everything in nature, from dewponds, cockerels, grassy hills, owls, greenhouse geraniums, corn sheaves and snow, to the rainy seas, airport-runway puddles and tide swept beaches of his later work as a war artist.

Ella Ravilious is the granddaughter of Eric Ravilious and Tirzah Garwood and is a curator of architecture and design at the Victoria and Albert Museum. This is her first book.

This book includes sections on weather, plants, landscape, animals and birds, and the effect of people in the landscape.
