Henry Spencer Moore (July 30, 1898 - August 31, 1986) was a great English artist.
He is best known for his monumental semi-abstract bronze sculptures that are found throughout the world.
In addition to sculptures, Moore produced many drawings, including a series depicting Londoners sheltering from the Blitz during World War II, and other graphic works on paper.
His forms are generally abstractions of the human figure, typically depicting mother and child or reclining figures.
Moore's works are generally evocative of the female body, apart from a phase in the 1950s in which he sculpted family groups.
His forms are generally pierced or contain empty spaces.
Many interpreters liken the undulating form of his reclining figures to the landscape and hills of his hometown of Yorkshire.
Moore was born in Castleford, the son of a coal miner.
He became known for his large-scale abstract sculptures in carved marble and cast bronze, and was instrumental in introducing a particular form of modernism to the United Kingdom.
Later, his ability to carry out large-scale commissions made him exceptionally wealthy. Nevertheless, he lived frugally; most of the money he earned went to the creation of the Henry Moore Foundation, which continues to support education and the promotion of the arts.
