Miner's son as artist: sculptures that are staggering, his genius.

0009450 Henry Moore = media coverage of 0009446;Fragonard, Jean Honoré; Miner's son as artist: sculptures that are staggering, his genius. Daily Herald London Short review of the Warren Gallery exhibition (See 0009446), outlining Moore's educational background. Many of the early drawings have a delicacy that recalls the graceful work of Fragonard. The sculpture however is simply staggering... Many of the figures have been done with a minimum of carving. All the strength of the marble is brought out with a few strokes of the chisel. Mr Moore works in every medium... A very advanced show and one that will shock the orthodox it contains much sculpture of almost overwhelming power.""
