Description: Internet print out from website selling table, purporting to be from Henry Moore's villa in Forte dei Marmi. Describes the Travertine table, which was eventually inherited by his daugher, Mary Moore. Text states apart from two wooden carved benches made in the early 1920s, the present table is the only piece of furniture Moore's daughter recalls him ever creating. Includes several anonymous quotes about the table, its location within the villa, and Moore's opinion on Travertine.
Two illustrations show the top and sides of the table. Accompanying text states Moore had purchased the Forte Dei Marmi home so that he could work on the UNESCO project and used the travertine stone for part of the interior of the house as well as the table.
