During his lifetime he created over 700 etchings, lithographs etc. exploring all aspects of printmaking. The practice of printmaking was completely correspondent to his sculptures. He would explore the form or character in one medium and either later realize it in the other medium or vice versa. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=w_uxBC_8tGk\" title=\"Henry Moore prints exhibition tour organized by the British Council\"\u003eTo learn more about Henry Moore's prints we recommend this video tour of an exhibition of Henry Moore's prints that was organized by the British Council. \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinally for clients in Toronto, Henry Moore has a special relevancy and connection.
