Henry Moore by Irving Penn, Much Hadam, 1962
"I was very lucky not to have gone to art school till I knew better than to believe what the teachers said."
Henry Moore by Yousuf Karsh, 1949
"There is one quality I find in all the artists I admire most – men like Masaccio, Michelangelo, Rembrandt, Cézanne. I mean a disturbing element, a distortion, giving evidence of a struggle of some sort."
Enrico Ferorelli

"To see major pieces by Mr. Moore in the gardens of the Belvedere, overlooking the city of Florence, was a remarkable experience, and one that he treasured."
- John Russell
Another amazing portrait by Bill Brandt of Henry Moore, 1950s
"All good art has contained both abstract & surrealist elements, just as it has contained both classical & romantic elements – order & surprise, intellect & imagination, conscious & unconscious."
