Henry Spencer Moore
Today marks the anniversary of the death of one of my favourite artists, Henry Moore.
Living in Leeds, I see this beautiful sculpture outside Leeds Art Gallery at least once a week. The soft organic lines really stand out from the strong lines of the surrounding architecture.
After a recent visit to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park I got the opportunity to experience the work in totally different surroundings. The bronzes became part of the picturesque backgrounds and complemented the natural colours.
For me, the work of Henry Moore, is as much a part of Yorkshire as the Yorkshire moors themselves.
