Warrior with Shield, 1953-1954 bronze and Falling Warrior, 1956-1957 bronze are discussed briefly in the chapter entitled Images of Man.

In the chapter on Magic and Metamorphosis Moore is quoted on materials and natural objects. The themes of Reclining Figures and Mother and Child are outlined with reference to their humanistic qualities and their analogy between figure and landscape."

Description: Cover title: Henry Moore. For U.S.A. edition see 0005027. Sumptuous book of photographs depicting the artist, his work and his environment. Also includes family photographs, documents; and landscape and nude photographs by Hedgecoe. Linked by statements, reminiscences and texts by the artist (For tape recordings see 0009710). The cumulative effect is to provide a detailed survey of Moore's life and work to the age of 70.
A selection of Henry Moore quotations:
8 The whole of nature is an endless demonstration of shape and form... I have no inhibitions about using different forms and different experiences combined together in one work, whether their source is animal, human, or from natural materials.
12 Monumentality has always been important to me although at first I wasn't conscious of it...some works have it and others don't. It's almost impossible to define.
45 I began believing in direct stone carving...in some of my early work there is no neck simply because I was frightened to weaken the stone. Out of an exaggerated respect for the material, I was reducing the power of the form.
49 I've never purposely set about destroying any of my sculptures, although I have destroyed drawings...we got worked up into a frenzy...We must have destroyed a thousand drawings.
56 In Nature, living things, because of the effect of their environment, are never perfectly symmetrical, this principle became fundamental to my work.
75 Flintstone, pebbles, shells and driftwood have all helped me to start off ideas, but far more important to me has been the human figure.
83 Sculpture should always at first sight have some obscurities and further meanings.
121 In my personal outlook, the greatest influence has probably been novels...Dostoevsky and Tolstoy, and then later Stendhal, Thomas Hardy and D.H.Lawrence.

A selection of Henry Moore quotations:
8 The whole of nature is an endless demonstration of shape and form... I have no inhibitions about using different forms and different experiences combined together in one work, whether their source is animal, human, or from natural materials.
12 Monumentality has always been important to me although at first I wasn't conscious of it...some works have it and others don't. It's almost impossible to define.
45 I began believing in direct stone carving...in some of my early work there is no neck simply because I was frightened to weaken the stone. Out of an exaggerated respect for the material, I was reducing the power of the form.
49 I've never purposely set about destroying any of my sculptures, although I have destroyed drawings...we got worked up into a frenzy...We must have destroyed a thousand drawings.
56 In Nature, living things, because of the effect of their environment, are never perfectly symmetrical, this principle became fundamental to my work.
75 Flintstone, pebbles, shells and driftwood have all helped me to start off ideas, but far more important to me has been the human figure.
