Description: The article starts with a quote from 'Vogue's Eye View Vogue June 1948 p37: "At the galleries the Season promises some delectable fare ... A new work by Henry Moore is an event. His group of Three Standing Figures can be seen at the great outdoor Sculpture Exhibition which the LCC has put on in Battersea Park"
174-175 refers to a portrait of Moore, photographed by Norman Parkinson, standing next to Three Standing Figures 1947 Darley Dale stone, (LH 268) in Battersea Park.
178 Robert BURSTOW writes about the park location as 'accessible to the middle and working class residents of south London" but not too distant from 'traditional artistic centres north of the river'; and evoking benign associations of the countryside. Moore's Three Standing Figures 1947 Darley Dale stone, (LH 268) is also refrenced in a Harper's Bazaar fashion spread 'White without a belmish' in July 1948, utilizing association with an aristocratic country house. Reference to Moore's sculpture at (Fiona) MacCarthy's stately home in the country. It was removed from an accessible urban space but not from 'a sense of nation and heritage'.
