Comments on how Ervinck, as a non-British artist who is explicitly influenced by Moore, fits into this framework.

The remainder of the book is made up of photographs of Ervinck's work, his collections, and the Cabinet of Curiosities, set alongside archive images of Henry Moore, Moore's works, and Moore's studios.
