Leaguer in a pine forest on the edge of a ploughed clearing. The ground a thick, soft moss. Lovely smell from the trees, crushed moss and herbage and the wood fires. Sleep with the crew of my tank under a tarpaulin

イギリスのイラストっていうと何故かエリナー・ファージョンの挿絵を思い浮かべるんですが、名前を知らなかったので今調べた。Edward Ardizzoneさんという方らしい。子供の時に読んでたやつ。私の中のイギリスのイラストこんなイメージ。エルサ・ベスコフと同時代ぐらいかな。あれは北欧ですけど。

'Look for the picture books of...Ardizzone, Burningham, Browne, Blake, Shirley Hughes, the Ahlbergs & Sendak. Read them with your most adult awareness of life & literature & text, & you will see that the invitations they offer to young readers are far from infantile.'
Meek, 1988

When I see images of civilians sheltering in Ukrainian cities, this is an image that comes to mind. Edward Ardizzone's 'In The Shelter'. A watercolour full of the uncomfortable, dreary, anxious exhaustion of life in a bomb shelter.

Ardizzone's work is a great place to start if you are interested in book collecting: not too expensive, but excellent quality illustrations supporting some great books.
In 1944 Ardizzone travelled with British troops as the D-Day invasion took place, sketching on the landing craft as the men prepared to hit the beach.
