More Information
From an unidentified sketchbook. Osbert and Sacheverell Sitwell, brothers of poet Edith who had died in 1964, asked Moore tp design a headstone for her Grave in Weedon Lois, Northamptonshire. Moore's bronze Hand Relief No.1 1952 LH 354, showing the hand of a child holding that of an adult, is set into the stone. Moore attended the dedication of the head-stone in November 1967.
