ABOUT THE ARTIST Henry Moore (1898–1986) was a British sculptor and one of the most influential figures in modern sculpture. Born in Yorkshire, England, he became known for his large-scale semi-abstract bronze sculptures, often depicting reclining human figures and mother-and-child forms. His style was inspired by natural shapes, landscapes, and non-Western art, as well as the human body. Moore studied at the Royal College of Art in London and gained international recognition in the 1930s. During World War II, he created powerful drawings of people sheltering in the London Underground, further enhancing his reputation. After the war, his public sculptures were installed worldwide, making his work widely accessible. His major achievements include redefining modern sculpture through abstraction, pioneering public art on a monumental scale, and influencing generations of artists with his organic forms and innovative techniques.
