Artist

Styles

Pencil, crayon, chalk, watercolour, pen and ink on paper laid on thick card. Hand-signed by artist, Signed and dated 'Moore/39.' (lower right) Henry Moore Foundation No.: 1426. // Across a warm peach-toned wash, four reclining figures unfold in sequence — bone-and-cloth bodies sketched in fine pencil, crayon, chalk, watercolour, pen and ink — each shape carrying the embryonic sculpture about to emerge from it. The drawing is laid on thick card, hand-signed and dated 'Moore/39.' lower right (Henry Moore Foundation No. 1426). 1939 is the cusp on which Moore's wartime vocabulary is born: shelter drawings, reclining bronzes, the great body-as-landscape language. To acquire this is to anchor a collection in the very source of twentieth-century British sculpture.

What is late modernism?
Artwork by Roy Lichtenstein

What is late modernism?

Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
