More InformationMonograph on early modern, modern, and contemporary British art. pp.299-300: discussion of Moore's elmwood Reclining Figure 1936, which Jones sees as a "disconcertingly shaped" carving. He dismisses Moore's work as merely "emulating the latest thing from Paris", contrasting Moore with director Alfred Hitchcock, who he sees as one of Britain's greatest modern artists.
