One of my favourite watercolour landscapes of one of my favourite local walks - The Causeway, Wiltshire Downs, by Eric Ravilious from 1937 (it’s a watercolour looking up Hippenscombe towards Chute’s Causeway). He served as a war artist, and was the first British war artist to die on active service in World War II when the aircraft he was in was lost off Iceland.
