EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sign Maker" takes us back to the bustling High Street of the 1930s. Created by renowned artist Eric Ravilious, this illustration captures the essence of a bygone era with its vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail. The image showcases a shop window adorned with an array of handcrafted signs, skillfully created by the Sign Maker himself. Each sign tells a unique story, reflecting the diverse businesses that once thrived in this vibrant community. From Luminor Sign Co. to Letter Works, these establishments were essential for attracting customers and establishing their brand identity. Ravilious masterfully brings this scene to life through his use of bold brushstrokes and rich hues. The warm glow emanating from within each store adds an inviting touch, enticing passersby to step inside and explore what lies beyond those doors. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time, immersing ourselves in the sights and sounds of a bustling street filled with eager shoppers and curious onlookers. It serves as a reminder of our shared history and how even something as seemingly mundane as signage can hold such significance in capturing the spirit of an era long gone. This remarkable piece is not only a testament to Ravilious' artistic brilliance but also stands as a timeless tribute to the craftsmanship that once graced our city streets.
