In 1930 he married Eileen Lucy "Tirzah" Garwood (1908-1951) also a noted artist and engraver. From around 1936, he became one of Wedgwood’s most prolific freelance designers, although many of his designs were not produced in quantity until after World War II, during which he was killed while serving as a war artist with the Royal Marines. Wedgwood had revived the use of engraved designs in the mid 1930s – a mode of decoration which allowed the artist’s own work and ‘hand-writing’ to be reproduced in a factory setting, and well suited to Ravilious’ style. Ravilious’ engraving for this mug was produced in 1936, for the Coronation of Edward VIII the following year, but the king abdicated before the event took place. The design was later adapted for the coronations of both George VI and Elizabeth II. Other Wedgwood commemorative ware by Ravilious includes a mug celebrating the company’s relocation to Barlaston in1939 and a ‘Boat Race Day’ bowl, cup and stand (1938). He also designed at least seven Wedgwood tableware services, each with a number of vignettes on a single everyday theme. His ‘Travel’ dinner service for six, produced in the 1950s and depicting travel through snow and by balloon, bus, train, aeroplane, steamboat and sail, cost £17 3s 6d. Earlier designs were engraved at the factory from Ravilious’ drawings; others, including the ‘Boat Race’ images, were lithographs drawn by Ravilious himself for direct application to the ware. The Fitzwilliam Museum also holds a war-time watercolour by Ravilious, two books with his engravings a number of his prints, a book of Tirzah Ravilious’ engravings, and Wedgwood Coronation mugs designed by Richard Guyatt. reference term-109795 adlib-term-109795 8a394dfa-6091-3a16-97c3-fb85612c23b6 20th Century, Mid reference term-114582 adlib-term-114582 511cfe35-cd51-335e-b2a9-7683f4b84bd1 literal England England country Barlaston leadless reference term-37088 adlib-term-37088 0a28530e-cea8-3d08-b792-a30bf68f524f clear glaze reference term-42837 adlib-term-42837 60792d1e-3967-38d7-8310-ee3edeb8a4ce cream-coloured earthenware Diameter cm 11.3 Height cm 10.5 Width cm 15.9 reference media-11628 adlib-media-11628 7f033d41-2f7a-3dce-904d-105573ca72a6 jpeg aa/aa6/C_69_1992_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1702926336990 1 image jpeg aa/aa6/mid_C_69_1992_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 362 width pixels 500 1702926336990 1 image jpeg aa/aa6/C_69_1992_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1702926336990 1 image jpeg aa/aa6/preview_C_69_1992_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 181 width pixels 250 1702926336990 1 image 0 media image reference media-11629 adlib-media-11629 8eedfbc0-1dc9-3ee5-8d2a-6f96418777bb jpeg aa/aa6/C_69_1992_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1702926516985 1 image jpeg aa/aa6/mid_C_69_1992_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 362 width pixels 500 1702926516985 1 image jpeg aa/aa6/C_69_1992_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1702926516985 1 image jpeg aa/aa6/preview_C_69_1992_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 181 width pixels 250 1702926516985 1 image 1 media image reference media-11630 adlib-media-11630 b8852385-8799-3d39-be73-16c873fe013f jpeg aa/aa6/C_69_1992_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1702926544181 1 image jpeg aa/aa6/mid_C_69_1992_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 362 width pixels 500 1702926544181 1 image jpeg aa/aa6/C_69_1992_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 550 width pixels 760 1702926544181 1 image jpeg aa/aa6/preview_C_69_1992_283_29.jpg 1 height pixels 181 width pixels 250 1702926544181 1 image 2 media image reference term-91188 adlib-term-91188 40f320f4-04b6-3303-8129-f9e81e2b4671 mug history note Uncertain before Sir Ivor and Lady Batchelor 1 same designer reference object-11751 adlib-object-11751 7b483d4c-6be7-391b-9705-737ab12082cd
