A charming self-published book about Great Bardfield, the Essex village that became home to several artists, including Ravilious and Bawden; like a picture within a picture, it’s also about about Noel Carrington’s 1949 book Life in an English Village, which was proposed and illustrated by EB. Many illustrations – postcards, photographs, sketches, woodcuts, etc.
