| Henry Moore, Reclining Mother and Child 1975-76 (detail). |
UNITED KINGDOM---After the huge success of the landmark 2007
Henry Moore exhibition at Kew Gardens, this September visitors will once again experience an iconic Moore sculpture within the natural landscape of the Gardens. This striking work explores the relationship between a small form and a large one; the mother and child, with the reclining female form suggesting the sinuous shapes of the rolling countryside in contrast to the angular abstracted child which sits upright, and tough in contrast to its tender mother.
