EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite interior decoration of Sir Geoffrey Storrs Fry's flat in Portman Square, London, back in 1933. Created by the talented artist Eric William Ravilious, this masterpiece adorns the music room with its stunning triptych panels inspired by the enchanting tennis court at Manor Gardens in Eastbourne. Today, these remarkable pieces are proudly displayed at Bristol Museum & Art Gallery. The photograph captures a moment frozen in time, offering a glimpse into the artistic brilliance and attention to detail that characterized British design during this era. The carefully painted panels on the doors harmonize seamlessly with the surrounding furniture and decor elements, creating an ambiance that is both elegant and inviting. In this image, one can appreciate not only Ravilious' skillful brushstrokes but also his ability to infuse life into static objects. The presence of a chair and a piano hints at the musical atmosphere that must have filled this space while echoing Sir Geoffrey Fry's passion for arts. Transported to another time through this photograph, viewers are reminded of Britain's rich cultural heritage and its lasting impact on interior design. This snapshot from history serves as a testament to both Ravilious' talent as an artist and Sir Geoffrey Fry's discerning taste in selecting such exceptional pieces for his home.
