About the Item
Rare bowl, great condition for age and use.
And if you haven’t seen the documentary about Ravilious, Drawn to War, released in 2022, you should! There’s so much to this artist who died when his plane went down in the 2nd World War.
“The designs that Ravilious created for Wedgwood are, for me, a perfect example of collaboration between artist and industry. His original artwork was subsequently engraved onto copperplate by skilled craftspeople at Wedgwood to create the paper transfers which would be fired onto the china. The vignettes and borders applied to plates, mugs and coffee pots retain the subtle tone and fine line of his wood-engraved vignettes and lithographs. The looping border of his ‘Persephone’ design and the twist motif created for ‘Garden’, each laid on a softly shaded band of colour, are unmistakably Ravilious. His original drawings for designs, sometimes incorporating collaged wood-engraved motifs and with areas cut away or patched over, are revealing of his thought processes.” - Artist Angie Lewin

Eric Ravilious
Eric William Ravilious was a British painter, designer, book illustrator and wood-engraver. He was born on July 22, 1903, in London. Ravilious studied at Eastbourne School of Art and at the Royal College of Art, where he studied under Paul Nash and became close friends with Edward Bawden. He began his career as a muralist, first coming to notice as an artist in 1924. He went on to become one of the best-known artists of the 1930s. Ravilious was the leading light of wood-engraving in England at that time and undertook ceramic designs for Wedgwood. He also designed graphics for London Transport. Ravilious died on September 2, 1942, in Iceland.
