Henry Moore Prints and Multiples

British, 1898-1986

Henry Spencer Moore OM CH FBA was an English artist. He is best known for his semi-abstract monumental bronze sculptures, which are located around the world as public works of art. As well as sculpture, Moore produced many drawings, including a series depicting Londoners sheltering from the Blitz during the Second World War, along with other prints and graphic works on paper.

His forms are usually abstractions of the human figure, typically depicting mother-and-child or reclining figures. Moore's works are usually suggestive of the female body, apart from a phase in the 1950s when he sculpted family groups. His forms are generally pierced or contain hollow spaces. Many interpreters liken the undulating form of his reclining figures to the landscape and hills of his Yorkshire birthplace.

Moore became well known through his carved marble and larger-scale abstract cast bronze sculptures, and was instrumental in introducing a particular form of modernism to the United Kingdom. His ability in later life to fulfil large-scale commissions made him exceptionally wealthy. Despite this, he lived frugally; most of the money he earned went toward endowing the Henry Moore Foundation, which continues to support education and promotion of the arts.

Fjord by Henry Moore drawing of Scottish landscape for W.H. Auden poetry book
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 lower right in pencil; numbered 8/25 lower left in pencil. Printed in inky black, Fjord features a close-up view of the water as it meets the shore. Yorkshire is famous for its rocky coastline, where fishing villages cling to cliffs, windswept abbeys peak above the skyline, and sand beaches attract families on vacation. Moore’s scene is dark and even sinister – the shore’s narrow inlets reaching into the water like gnarled fingers. Fjord displays Moore’s fascination with light and dark – what he called a “…bias towards the blackness and mysterious depths.” Moore was inspired by the prints of Rembrandt and the drawings of Seurat, and even drew on his memories of viewing the Altamira cave paintings, recalling how some of the images used the shadow of candlelight on the rough surface of the rock to model light. Shortly before starting work on this series of lithographs, Moore had fallen ill, leaving him aware of his own mortality. His mood pervaded these prints with a sense of danger and foreboding. Fjord is one of a group of lithographs...

Lullaby Henry Moore portrait black white drawing woman Auden poetry illustration
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 lower right in pencil; numbered lower left in pencil. Lullaby features a male figure standing behind a woman sleeping with her head down. This shadowy figure recurs throughout Moore’s Auden lithographs, an ambiguous presence who exists between menace and comfort. The imagery for Lullaby 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.” Lullaby is one of a group of lithographs...

Six Mother and Child Studies - Etching by Henry Moore - 1976
By Henry Moore
Located in Roma, IT
Six mother and child studies is an original contemporary artwork realized by the British artist Henry Moore (Castleford, 1898 - Much Hadham, 1986) in 1976 Original Aquatint and Etching. Hand-signed on the lower right in pencil: Moore . Numbered on the lower left corner in pencil: 17/90 Printed and published by Il Bisonte, Florence. Good conditions. Prov. Maria Luigia Guaita, Stamperia Il Bisonte, Florence Reference: G.Cramer, Henry Moore, The Graphic Work , ed. Cramer 1986 repr. N ° 426; Catalogue Il Bisonte Florence, 1983, no. 480. Henry Moore (1898-1986) focused on the hole, or void, as an important element in sculptural design. His well-known reclining female nudes combine the organic jargon central to Moore’s philosophy: bone shapes, eroded rocks, and geologic formations to communicate the human form’s fluidity, dynamism, and evocative nature. The reclining figures were originally inspired by a photograph Moore acquired of a Chac Mool...

Untitled (Two Standing Figures) from Paroles Peintres IV
By Henry Moore
Located in New York, NY
This etching was executed in 1970 for Paroles Peintes IV, and is from the edition of 50 on Johannot wove paper. A limited number of signed proofs were also issued; this impression is signed and numbered 47/50. Editions O. Lazar-Vernet, Paris 1970 Medium: original etching. Plate size 13 1/2 x 9 1/2 inches (344 x 243 mm). Often regarded as the father of modern British sculpture, Henry Moore’s large-scale bronze and marble sculptures can be found in public parks and plazas around the world. Working in various styles and mediums, Moore is perhaps best known for his highly abstract and interpretive renditions of the human figure, often portrayed in the reclining position. He was influenced by Classical, Pre-Columbian, and African art, and by Surrealism; his biomorphic style has been compared that of Salvador Dalí and Jean Arp. Moore was a longtime friend and colleague of fellow sculptor Barabara Hepworth, having met at the Leeds School of Art around 1919. He also admired the work of Constantin Brancusi, whose organic abstract style resonated with Moore’s belief that observation of nature is essential to artistic creation. Moore himself inspired many artists including his former studio assistants Anthony Caro and Richard Wentworth...

  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 6, 2024
    Henry Moore's style of art was modern. He is best known for his monumental bronze sculptures, which are installed around the world, often as public art. He used abstract forms of the human body, typically depicting mother-and-child or reclining figures. His more abstract forms are generally pierced or contain hollow spaces. Many critics have likened the undulating shapes of his reclining figures to the landscape and hills of his Yorkshire birthplace. On 1stDibs, find an assortment of Henry Moore art.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 3, 2024
    Opinions vary as to what Henry Moore's most famous piece is. Since the British artist's semi-abstract monumental bronze sculptures are often public works of art, many have become well known.

    Henry Moore created sculptures for a few reasons. Born in Castleford, Yorkshire, in 1898, he had an early interest in being a sculptor, and in 1921, he was awarded a scholarship to study at the Royal Academy of Art in London. As he would explain, this is where he was particularly inspired to pursue his sculpting practice: “Even when I was a student I was totally preoccupied by sculpture in its full spatial richness, and if I spent a lot of time at the British Museum in those days, it was because so much of the primitive sculpture there was distinguished by complete cylindrical realization.” He also had an interest in exploring how the human body connected to landscapes. He often produced works with specific locations in mind, considering how his figures would relate to the space around them. His forms are usually abstractions of the human body, typically depicting mother-and-child or reclining figures, and are often pierced or contain hollow spaces. Many interpreters liken the undulating form of his reclining figures to the landscape and hills of his Yorkshire birthplace. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Henry Moore art.

    How much a Henry Moore statue is worth depends on its history, condition and other factors. In 2022, his Reclining Figure: Festival, created for the 1951 Festival of Britain, set an auction record for the artist when it sold for $31 million. The piece is a good example of the artist's forms, which are usually abstractions of the human figure, typically depicting a mother and child or reclining figure.
