More InformationAlistair Grant describes the gift from Julian Huxley, and Moore's enthusiastic response to the skull itself and to the etching process. He has created a unique series of etchings unequaled in strength and imagery. We have the sureness and contentment of power and understanding the complete mastery of the situation. In these new etchings the stuff of life has been breathed onto paper."Venues listed in 0010059: McNay Art Institute (San Antonio Tex.)
