Henry Moore's Sheep Sketchbook by Henry Moore
In 1972 Henry Moore's sculpture studios in the English countryside at Much Hadham were filled with preparations for his retrospective exhibition in Florence. A small room overlooked a field of sheep, which he began to draw, returning later in the year when they had been shorn.
'Brought to life with a humorous touch that somehow retains all the characteristic dark intensity of Henry Moore’s grander works, this gem of a sketchbook gives a rare close-up glimpse into the private inspirations of this enigmatic giant of 20th-century British art' - The Art Book
Henry Moore (1898 – 1986) was an Anglo-Irish sculptor and artist. He was best known for his semi-abstract monumental bronze sculptures which are located around the world as public works of art. Kenneth Clark (1903 – 1983) was a British author, museum director, broadcaster, and one of the best-known art historians of his generation.
