Eric Ravilious Art Prints:
‘Belle Tout – Beachy Head Lighthouse’, Eric Ravilious, watercolour, 1939.
‘Just now I am busy on the hills painting,’ Ravilious wrote to his friend Diana Tuely, ‘in the greatest comfort with my jacket off, and seated in a magnificent Chinese chair. That is to say I am perched in the top of the Belle Tout lighthouse (I wish you could see this) in the lantern drawing the immense expanse below with a gale blowing outside’.
The scene described above is immortalised in one of this artist’s best known works, now available as a giclée print using pigment-based inks, on acid and lignin-free museum quality paper. See below for full details.
