Moore was a British sculptor, draughtsman and printmaker of the highest international regard. His early work rejected academic tradition and he used the natural shapes and contours of the material he was using and an intrinsic part of the piece. His work was almost always based on forms in the natural world including his famous reclining mother and child figures.

Moore's reputation grew to an international level when he won the sculpture prize at the Venice Biennale in 1948. From this point onwards he began to work in bronze and worked on a number of commissions for leading galleries in Britain and elsewhere. The composition of his work also progressed to include two or more elements grouped together.

His output during his lifetime was huge and his etchings are held in a number of significant public collections. He was dedicated to various public bodies and believed that great art should be enjoyed by everyone, not just the elite. A fine gentleman and one the most prolific artists of his generation, Moore is artist whose work is celebrated across the world!
