Drawing on extensive interviews, personal archives, and decades of research, Berthoud chronicles Moore's extraordinary journey from a miner's son in Castleford to one of the most celebrated artists of the modern era, tracing the creative ambition and quiet determination that drove him to international renown.\n\nBerthoud presents a nuanced portrait of both the man and the myth, examining the personal relationships, wartime experiences, and aesthetic philosophies that shaped Moore's singular vision — from his celebrated shelter drawings of Londoners during the Blitz to his colossal public sculptures that now stand in cities across the world. Written with clarity and scholarly rigour, The Life of Henry Moore remains an indispensable study of artistic genius, leaving the reader to wonder what deeper forces compel a man to carve meaning from stone and bronze, piece by monumental piece.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49130587357403,"sku":"2026100007610-SECONDHAND","price":35.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/7c1c2830-5449-4d7b-b505-067cdf8b0f37.png?v=1786586934","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100007610-secondhand-the-life-of-henry-moore","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
