About the Item
Hailing from a small edition of 50, this sophisticated lithograph on paper was realized by an unheralded Mid Century Modern printmaker in 1977. Entitled "Nuage Blanc" (White Cloud), the piece offers an abstract landscape featuring a vibrant blue sky with an amorphic abstract form in the center (representing a cloud). A sinuously curved banded form suggesting a road occupies the foreground of the composition bookended on each side by black forms (one solid, and the other striated). Colorful beads, suggesting gemstones in hues of acquamarine and ruby reside in the nebulous black form to the right of the banded road. Highly detailed and textural forms, suggesting abstracted foliage occupy the middle of the composition providing a dynamic contrast to the more solid formations found elsewhere in the piece. With its sophisticated palate and composition, this piece would be a winning addition to any style of interior from classic Mid Century Modern to contemporary. It is signed by the artist lower right and dated "77. It is also numbered 24/50. The piece comes presented in a custom gallery frame and is in excellent vintage condition.

Lullaby Sketches: black white drawing based on Auden poetry and Yorkshire lands
By Henry Moore
Located in New York, NY
One of a series of 18 lithographs drawn by the artist for the Auden Poems/Moore Lithographs 1974 book and portfolio. This work is from an edition of 25 printed on vellum aside from the portfolio (edition of 75) and the book. Signed by the artist and numbered 1/25 lower left in pencil.
This print features small sketches of heads resting on forearms. Moore experimented with different angles, appearing to practice for the composition for Lullaby: Sleeping Head, which depicts a shadowy figure supporting the head of a sleeping woman. Lullaby: Sketches is a rare window into Moore’s process of composing an image. Delicate, single-line arms and hair reveal the sculptor’s equal talent as a draftsman.
The imagery for Lullaby Sketches was inspired by Auden’s poem Lullaby. Lullaby was the first poem Moore read for this project, which begins:
“Lay your sleeping head, my love / Human on my faithless arm; / Time and fevers burn away Individual beauty from / Thoughtful children, and the grave / Proves the child ephemeral: / But in my arms till break of day / Let the living creature lie, / Mortal, guilty, but to me / The entirely beautiful.”
The Auden/Moore limited edition book and portfolio were exhibited on publication at the British Museum, London, with an accompanying catalogue. Lullaby Sketches is one of a group of lithographs...
