(Notes Moore's steady certitude, his influences, concept of truth to materials and association with artist groups. He reached a wider public through the Shelter drawings. In a section on pages 180-188 entitled Epstein and Moore the mantle of most audacious sculptor was seen to pass from Epstein to Moore. His obsession with motherhood as a theme was confirmed through seeing Epstein illustrations in Blast. Epstein helped the younger artist who developed into an outstanding sculptor of the generation. Outlines his preoccupation with landscape).
