Church under a hill 1927

"Church Under a Hill" is a 1927 woodcut by English artist Eric Ravilious. The print depicts a small church nestled beneath a hill, with trees obscuring the view. Ravilious, known for his charming and nostalgic depictions of the English countryside, uses stark black and white lines to create a sense of depth and detail in the composition. The church, with its quaint steeple and simple form, provides a focal point against the backdrop of the lush foliage, suggesting a serene and peaceful atmosphere. This print is characteristic of Ravilious's signature style, which combines stylized elements with a strong sense of realism.
