Ravilious grew up in Sussex and after attending Eastbourne School of Art, went on to study in the Design School at the Royal College of Art. In Ravilious’ landscapes of Sussex and other parts of England, he depicts wide, open spaces devoid of people, but as a modernist artist, he alludes to human impact through the roads, trains and fences of his compositions. Ravilious also captured everyday scenes from English provincial life. He was was a skilled wood engraver, his illustrations in this medium make striking use of strong tonal contrast which can be detected throughout his body of work. Following the war, Ravilious’ art was almost forgotten, with his mural at Waterloo bombed and many of his war paintings either censored or sunk at sea. But almost 50 years later, his daughter found a hoard of unknown artworks and made efforts to resurrect Ravilious’ career.
