The son of a Yorkshire coal miner, Moore enjoyed his first overseas retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art in 1946. He swiftly became an international sensation. In 1948, he represented Great Britain at the Venice Biennale and won the International Sculpture Prize. Today, Moore’s sculptures can be found in public parks and plazas worldwide and in the collections of the Tate, the Guggenheim Museum, the Hammer Museum, the Stedelijk Museum, and the Art Gallery of Ontario (Literature: Henry Moore: Catalogue Raisonné: 1980-1986, LH 826).
