Description: Essay review of Henry Moore: Sculpture and Drawings (See 0008893), in which Newton compares the work of the two artists: Superficially there is a resemblance between the two men. Both have brooding minds. Both are searchers: both are in the habit of conducting their search by a kind of thinking aloud on paper... Moore's search begins where Leonardo's left off...discoveries of Leonardo's day are the common knowledge of our own." Both Leonardo's Notebooks and Moore's Sketchbooks include many drawings of bones; but while Leonardo's were descriptive Moore's are "explorations of boniness...the process is intuitive where Leonardo's was scientific". Moore is enlarging his own and the world's vocabulary of form: "His recumbent figures less human and less dynamic than Michelangelo's are more cosmic because they refer us back not only to the human body but to a hundred other natural forms." Leonardo is concerned with flowing forms Moore with the tough and static "the water-worn pebble better than the water that wears it away". This text reprinted in In My View (See 0008235).
Two letters commenting on shapes and forms appeared in The Listener of 19 October 1944 under the heading Henry Moore and Leonardo."
