He favored sensual or intimate subjects such as languid reclining figures and mothers and children. The scale and form of Moore’s sculptures also draw connections between human form and landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCaviar20 has a particular interest in sculptors who included printmaking as part of their process (Jean Arp, Louise Nevelson, Kosso Eloul etc.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHenry Moore is perhaps one of the leading 20th century sculptors\/printmakers. 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. Moore described his education in printmaking as “intense, exhausting, but exciting and satisfying”.\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\u003e“Two Reclining Figures” is a superlative example of Moore’s study of nature within the human form. Almost equal part rock and human form, these two figures seem to fluidly blend monumental nature and sensuous bodies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinally for clients in Toronto, Henry Moore has a special relevancy and connection.
