Photographing the landscapes, seasons and people of a disappearing rural England, James Ravilious, son of famous war painter Eric Ravilious, became an intimate and sympathetic chronicler of rural Devon from 1972 - 1999. 

Ravilious took over 80,000 black and white images of all aspects of local life: landscape, farming, everyday life in the local towns and villages, and their special occasions With a painter's composed eye, he recorded compelling images of the hardships and pleasures of farming communities in remote Devon, a compassionate witness to the harshness of country life.
