"For both admirers and students of Henry Moore's work, this book will be a blessing. Moore's humanity and intelligence make this compendium a plea-sure to dip into as well as scholarly and comprehensive.
It was this time that Moore began his series of Transformation Drawings. Objets trouvés picked up on the beach - lobster claws, animal bones or worn pebbles - became in Moore's imagination reclining figures or mothers holding children.
In his later work he preferred bronze to stone as his chosen medium and began work on an extremely large scale. This lavishly illustrated volume provided a fascinating introduction to a twentieth-century genius.
