- Serves as a guide to the house, studios and gardens at Perry Green
and a fascinating introduction to Henry Moore's extraordinary range of
work- Beautifully illustrated in full color throughoutHenry Moore is one
of the most important and influential artists of the 20th century. His
home, studios and garden at Perry Green in Hertfordshire provide an
invaluable insight into his life and work. When Moore died in 1986 the
studios and their contents were preserved so that visitors could
experience them as they were in his lifetime - as if the artist has just
stepped outside. Although no longer working spaces, the studios provide
a glimpse into Moore's world and bring us as close as possible to his
working methods. This guide to the house, studios and gardens at Perry
Green provides a fascinating introduction to Moore's artistic practices
and the extraordinary range of his work, from sculpture to textiles,
prints and drawings to woodcarving and ceramics.
