This collection focusses on his and Tirzah’s time in the Essex village of Great Bardfield. Two of which (Drought, and The Village School/New Bungalow) depict the parched landscape of the long, tropical summer of 1933, with the third, Prospect from the Attic, judging by the leafless trees and the carpet-beating figure, probably painted in early spring, 1932. 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, particularly in the first two decades of the 21st century.
