Warrior with Shield, 1953-1954 bronze and Falling Warrior, 1956-1957 bronze are discussed briefly in the chapter entitled Images of Man. They arouse our empathetic responses...it is impossible to look at this work and not have oneself the sensation of falling". In the chapter on Magic and Metamorphosis Moore is quoted on materials and natural objects. The themes of Reclining Figures and Mother and Child are outlined with reference to their humanistic qualities and their analogy between figure and landscape."
