We've recently seen the documentary film 'Drawn To War' about the war artist, Eric Raviliou, at the cinema. It's well worth watching and really shows you how he developed his practise and interacted with his circle of friends.
I'd already read the book on his life by Helen Binyon, who had been asked to write it by his children as she and Eric had been friends since their student days.
Helen was one of my tutors when I was at Bath Academy of Art some sixty years ago and wrote the book after she retired.
