Eric Kennington R.A. was an English sculptor, artist and illustrator, and an official war artist in both of the world wars. As a war artist, Kennington specialised in depictions of the daily hardships endured by soldiers and airmen. In the inter-war years he worked mostly on portraits and a number of book illustrations. The most notable of his book illustrations were for T. E. Lawrence's Seven Pillars of Wisdom. Kennington was also a gifted sculptor, best known for his 24th Division War Memorial in Battersea Park, for his work on the Shakespeare Memorial Theatre in Stratford-upon-Avon and for the effigy of Lawrence at Wareham in Dorset. He resided at Homer House, Ipsden for many years. Both books are protected in Mylar archival covers. A scarce set and more-so with such a wonderful association. 2026 marks the 300th anniversary of the first publication of 'Gulliver's Travels'. More images available on request.
