Best known for his seventeen-year study of rural life in North Devon (The Beaford Archive), James Ravilious (1939-1999) recorded everyday living both in Devon, and elsewhere. The photographs taken portray in detail the rich landscape and weather along with the people, their hardships and their entertainments. This exhibition celebrates his work and displays his beautiful, honest and warmly sympathetic black and white images of life in the country. 2009 marks the tenth anniversary of his death.

Handmade silver prints, sold unframed and un-mounted are available for purchase. To order a print, please contact Alison Chown on 020 7452 3281 or email at exhibitions@nationaltheatre.org.uk.

Prints are authenticated and signed by Robin Ravilious and come in the following two sizes - 40.6cm x 50.8cm (16” x 20”) - £400 and 30.5 cm x 40.6cm (12” x 16”) - £300.
