Any review I might write would not be a patch on the review-article by Ian Jack in The Guardian, Saturday 16 May, on the Ravilious Exhibition. It is timely (' appeal to people who otherwise struggle with the idea of Englishness'), illuminating, and heart-felt. Ian is right: 'Landscapes are important to national identities Visitors took their time to gaze on each picture' [Absolutely true the 4 times I have visited it ] Ravilious had given them permission to like England, and to mourn it.'
Perhaps you should ask Ian how many stars he'd give it. The rating above is mine.
