In a section entitled The Commissioned and Specially Selected Works there are three photographs of Moore, one with J. Carter Brown, director of the National Gallery, the other two featuring Working Model for Mirror Knife Edge, 1976 bronze. Standing in the plaza of the East Building is Mirror Knife Edge, 1977 bronze, a gift of the Morris and Gwendolyn Cafritz Foundation. The text incorporates brief comments by Moore about the work: It came naturally...that I made it in two pieces... Between them I am trying to make a kind of mixture of the human figure and of landscape... As you move around it the two parts overlap or they open up and there's a space between.""

Date & Collation: 2pp.Text initialled E.B.
Description: Information sheet on Mirror Knife Edge, 1977 bronze, providing information on the commission and works by Moore leading up to the bronze. Aspects of the human figure and other natural forms are subtly discernible... Rounded curves meet sharp edges. The larger weighty volume swells like a hillside or maternal breast in contrast to the small piece which relates to it like a sheer wedge of bone or cliff. The work is a study in oppositions: two parts seemingly both male and female and dramatically juxtaposed yet they evoke the essence of a whole.""

354-355 LEWIS Douglas. Henry Moore: Figures in an Underground Shelter, 1941 drawing. Gift of Dr. Ruth B. Benedict.
Outlines how Moore came upon the shelterers in 1940 and produced the two Sketchbooks. This drawing is an enlargement of one of the sketches from the second Shelter Sketchbook. Quotes the artist and others in describing the War Drawings. The gravely somber rhythms of his figure groupings suggest timeless images of endurance monumentality and grandeur...The National Gallery owns thirteen prints by Moore and six sculptures. The present work is our first drawing and is one of the finest Moore drawings anywhere"."
