Exhibition

James Ravilious: An English Eye

10 May - 28 June 2025
Tuesday to Saturday, 10am - 5pm
Free to all

New exhibition of work by James Ravilious, renowned photographer of rural life and one of Devon’s best-loved artists.

The work has been chosen from the large retrospective show mounted for Ravilious by the Royal Photographic Society. This exhibition is on loan from the permanent collection of The Burton at Bideford.

James Ravilious (1939-1999) is well known for his black and white photography of Devon life and landscapes, particularly his seventeen-year project for the Beaford Photographic Archive. As part of the project, he 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, making it probably the most intensive record of any rural area in England.

Saturday 10 May, 2pm - 'A Chronicle of Rural Life' talk by Robin Ravilious, wife of James Ravilious. £5 - book
