The Collection of Dorothy and Richard Sherwood
Publisher: Christie's
Place Published: New York
Year: 2019
Date & Collation: 99pp.illus.
Description:

Catalogue of works from the collection of Dorothy and Richard Sherwood, being sold at 14 Christie's auctions over the course of 2019. Entries for two works by Henry Moore: Three Seated Figures 1940 (HMF 1506) and Mother and Child 1939 (LH 201). Comparative illustrations of Reclining Figure: Festival (LH 293) and Moore drawing in the Top Studio, Perry Green. Commentary on both works.

Discussion of Three Seated Figures draws comparisons to Picasso's Guernica, ancient Egyptian stone carvings (in particular a limestone statue of Inyotef, c.1950 BC), and the Three Fates and Three Graces of Greco-Roman mythology. Commentary on Mother and Child focuses on Moore's use of string in his sculpture, and mentions Stringed Relief (LH 182).

Front- and endpapers both show illustrations of Sherwood family home with LH 201 in situ.
