More InformationThe Little Library of Art, 71. One of a series of small format paperbacks. Illustrates 24 Sculptures 1924-1963. The eight-page introduction describes Moore's pre-eminence both in Britain and internationally. The scale and majesty of the large public bronzes retain the powerful images of the early carvings. Outlines Moore's life, career, and influences through Primitive art, the Italian Renaissance, and contemporary European contacts. Moore's humanity emerged in the War Drawings, and the Family Groups of the post-war period, while a note of angst is also evident in his output.
