Lunchtime Lectures:  Eric Ravilious and the V&A photo
Curator Ella Ravilious will talk about the artist and designer Eric Ravilious. Eric Ravilious was a student at the Royal College of Art at a time when it was based at the V&A and drew deeply from the V&A’s collections throughout the rest of his career. This talk will attempt to retrace his footsteps through the riches of the V&A.

Ella Ravilious is Curator: Architecture and Design at the Victoria and Albert Museum. Her book Eric Ravilious: Landscapes and Nature was published by V&A/Thames and Hudson in 2023.
