More InformationAmusing account by Aas of his encounter with Henry Moore when sent to a press conference by his editor to sketch the sculptor. Moore asked to see the portrait, agreed that it was a good likeness and showed Aas around the exhibition being mounted. Moore recalled an episode from his youth when he drew a young lady he was greatly attracted to. He decided he must have made the portrait too lifelike, as she never spoke to him again.
