Eric Ravilious, a prominent British painter, designer, book illustrator, and wood-engraver, created the artwork "Men Operating Submarine Controls" as part of his series on submarines. This piece is a notable example of his work as an official war artist during World War II. Ravilious was appointed as a war artist by the War Artists' Advisory Committee in 1940, and his role involved documenting the war effort through his distinctive artistic lens.

"Men Operating Submarine Controls" captures the intense and confined environment of a submarine's control room. Ravilious's use of watercolors in this piece is particularly significant, as it demonstrates his ability to convey the atmosphere and tension of the wartime setting. The painting features a group of naval personnel engrossed in their duties, manipulating the complex array of dials, levers, and gauges that control the submarine. The composition is meticulously detailed, reflecting Ravilious's keen observation skills and his commitment to authenticity.

The artwork is characterized by its muted color palette, which effectively conveys the dimly lit, claustrophobic interior of the submarine. Ravilious's technique of using delicate washes of color and precise line work adds to the overall sense of realism and immediacy. The painting not only serves as a historical document but also as a testament to the skill and dedication of the men who operated these formidable underwater vessels.

Ravilious's contribution to war art is highly regarded, and "Men Operating Submarine Controls" stands as a poignant reminder of the human element within the machinery of war. His ability to blend technical accuracy with artistic sensitivity makes this piece a significant work within his oeuvre and an important part of the visual history of World War II.
