☀️ Where did the sun go?! We're missing the warmer weather looking at this lovely detail from the ceramic series Garden (vignette detail), 1938 (made 1953–4), designed by Eric Ravilious for Josiah Wedgwood & Sons.
Still Life with Acanthus Leaves, Eric Ravilious, 1938/39. The original artwork is on long term loan to @FryArtGallery. An unfinished work, made as he was about to leave to join the Castle Hedingham Royal Observer Corps at the start of #WW2. #Essex
Today I'd like to sit and read,
Forget I have a job I need,
Ignore the things I have to do,
And just enjoy a book or two.
(Eric Ravilious)
