Eric Ravilious was a designer, painter, printmaker and illustrator best known for his depictions of the English landscape, particularly the South Downs. Often described as a particularly "English" artist, key to his style was an ability to convey in watercolour the mild vagaries of the British climate. His engagement with nature, though romantic rather than precise, pervades his works in many different techniques. This book explores his appreciation of the natural world and the techniques he used in a variety of media to convey those elements. Drawing on the V&A's collections, more than 100 images capture Ravilious's deep enjoyment of everything in nature, from dewponds, cockerels, grassy hills, owls, greenhouse geraniums, cornsheaves, and snow, to the rainy seas, airport-runway puddles and tideswept beaches of his later work as a war artist. The book includes sections on weather, plants, landscape, animals, and birds, and ends with a section devoted to man in the landscape, showcasing Ravilious's love of rusting machinery and other signs of human presence within nature, not least his depictions of hillside chalk figures. 600 10 $a Ravilious, Eric, $d 1903-1942 $v Catalogs. 610 20 $a Victoria and Albert Museum $v Catalogs. 600 17 $a Ravilious, Eric, $d 1903-1942 $2 fast $1 https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJxMmqJXBxg6BKYWHkxqwC 610 27 $a Victoria and Albert Museum $2 fast 650 0 $a Illustration of books. 650 0 $a Wood-engraving. 650 0 $a War artists. 650 0 $a Art $z London $z London $v Catalogs. 650 6 $a Illustration des livres. 650 7 $a illustration (process) $2 aat 650 7 $a Illustration of books $2 fast 650 7 $a War artists $2 fast 650 7 $a Wood-engraving $2 fast 655 7 $a catalogs (documents) $2 aat 655 7 $a Catalogs $2 fast 655 7 $a Catalogs. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Catalogues. $2 rvmgf 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 rvmgf 700 1 $a Ravilious, Eric, $d 1903-1942, $e artist. $1 https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJxMmqJXBxg6BKYWHkxqwC 710 2 $a Victoria and Albert Museum. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240517010948.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D3640826141211EF8F56A7732FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
