EDITORS COMMENTS
In this watercolor and pencil print by Eric Ravilious, we are transported to the depths of the ocean as we witness a submarine officer peering through the periscope. The year is 1940, a time of great turmoil and uncertainty during World War II. The officer's focused gaze reflects the tension and anticipation of what lies ahead in the vast expanse of water surrounding them.
Ravilious masterfully captures the intricate details of the submarine interior, from the dials and controls to the subtle play of light filtering through murky waters. The combination of watercolor and pencil creates a sense of depth and movement, immersing us in this moment frozen in time.
As we admire this artwork, we can't help but feel a sense of admiration for those who served on submarines during wartime, facing danger with courage and determination. The artist's skillful rendering brings to life not just an individual officer, but also a larger story of sacrifice and bravery.
This print serves as a poignant reminder of our shared history and honors those who have served their country with unwavering dedication. It is a testament to both artistic talent and historical significance, inviting us to contemplate the complexities of war and humanity's resilience in times of adversity.
