This beautifully illustrated book is the first full-length critical
study to focus on the watercolours of multitalented British artist
and designer Eric Ravilious (1903-1942). Adopting the wide-ranging
approach familiar to readers of his previous books on the artist,
author James Russell explores the evolution of a remarkable talent.
An introductory section offers an intimate portrait of Ravilious,
an artist for whom personal relationships, particularly with women,
were paramount. It goes on to describe the extraordinary
achievements of an all-too-brief career, drawing on new research to
seek out artistic influences and examine Ravilious's relationships
with fellow-artists, as well as the development of his mark making.
There follows the most comprehensive display of Ravilious
watercolours yet assembled. Some have never been published, while
others are familiar and well loved. Many are explored in short
accompanying essays, some with full-bleed images that show details
of paintings at full size. These texts are designed to entertain
and enlighten, looking at composition, technique, influence and
inspiration, or discussing the significance of particular subjects
and the people behind the scenes. This is the definitive guide to
the luminous, evocative and timeless watercolours of Eric
Ravilious, an artist now regarded as one of the finest of the
twentieth century.
