More Information

Disbanded notebook of cream lightweight laid paper 200x160mm to which sixteen drawings have been asciribed. The pages are unnumbered and, unlike the First and Second Shelter Sketchbooks, were attached at the side. This has sometimes been referred to as the Third Shelter Sketchbook, although it contains ideas similar to those in the Second, suggesting that Moore worked in different sketchbooks simultaneously.
