Cows coming home to be milked, La Vernede, Cevennes, France 1982
James Ravilious
In contributing to the Beaford archive, intended as a photographic record of life in a largely unspoilt, but vulnerable country area, James Ravilious created one of the most intensive photographic records of any rural area in England. Warmed by his affection and admiration for the people whose lives he recorded, his pictures reveal life as it was being lived in late C20th rural England when the country traditions that have been handed down for hundreds if not thousands, of years were still part of everyday existence.
