Eric Ravilious ‘Fields, Farms and Floods’ Greetings Card Collection.

Coincidentally, these three paintings were completed at three year intervals, with Afternoon in the Field (1932) being first, Floods at Lewes being the second (1935), and Corn Stooks and Farmsteads (1938) being the last. All three are also available as single cards. Eric Ravilious (22 July 1903 – 2 September 1942) was an exceptional watercolourist, wood engraver and designer. He grew up in the shadow of the Sussex Downs in the coastal town of Eastbourne, the surrounding landscape of which heavily influenced many of his best known works. His instantly recognisable style, palette and choice of subject have an almost universal appeal, a blend which has increased in popularity with the passing of time.
