Description: 245-252(10 illus) CAREY Frances. Henry Moore drawings in the British Museum.
Article by the Assistant Keeper. Prints and Drawings within a section entitled Notes on Selected Acquisitions in 1975".
11 Drawings 1921-1973 presented by Moore late in 1974 augment the existing collection of 13 drawings acquired in 1969. Discusses briefly importance of drawings by carvers; and the sculptural quality of his early life drawings and suggests the influence of Picasso's neoclassical phase. Quotes statements by Moore on drawing and notes the cessation of life drawings in 1935 until the War Drawings which are seen as more naturalistic than anything Moore had hitherto espoused. After the war maquettes replaced drawings as the main intermediary between the artist's conception and the finished sculpture. The Reclining Figure motif occurs throughout his career and the figure studies from 1928 to 1935 display a rigour and clarity of conception largely absent from...England during the first half of the twentieth century."
