Description

Henry Moore's Sheep Sketchbook is a charming collection of drawings and sketches created by the renowned artist during a period of creative retreat in 1972.

As sheep grazed in the meadow outside his studio, Moore produced a delightful flock of sketches that showcase his unique perspective on these rural subjects. From ewes nursing their lambs to the swollen stateliness of sheep with full coats of wool, each drawing offers a fresh insight into Moore's artistic themes.

This facsimile edition, created under Henry Moore's personal supervision, presents a tender and vigorous collection of drawings that are sure to charm anyone who sees them. A poignant gift from Moore to his daughter Mary, this sketchbook is now available for the first time in publication.
