Ravilious Engravings (continued)

The value of the book has been further increased in two ways: by the Ravilious, Bawden and Bliss families who have been generous in making available scrapbooks and files including preparatory drawings, and by access to three large collections of Ravilious’s work. Many of the engravings illustrated in the Lion and Unicorn Press book were not well reproduced and a major effort has been made to identify good impressions of engravings and reproduce them to the highest standard.

John Craig, himself a distinguished wood-engraver, has written an introduction suggesting some of the interests and influences which affected Ravilious and identifying the qualities which make his work so unmistakable and appealing. Jeremy Greenwood has carried out extensive research in preparing the catalogue.
