On the grounds of their home in Perry Green, Hertfordshire, Henry and Irina Moore created the ideal environment in which to make and appreciate sculpture. A network of studios scattered across seventy acres facilitated a lifetime of creativity. The outdoor space enabled Moore to work on a monumental scale and to test the siting of his sculpture.

Irina transformed the land around their home into a series of outdoor galleries – open to the air, light, and subject to the shifting seasons. The Henry Moore Foundation continues to display an annually changing selection of sculpture in the grounds today.

22 sculptures by Moore are on display in the grounds this year. Moore’s studios and gardens are open to the public from 4 July to 1 November 2020.
