Henry Moore
Henry Spencer Moore OM CH FBA was an English artist. He is best known for his semi-abstract monumental bronze sculptures, which are located around the world as public works of art. As well as sculpture, Moore produced many drawings, including a series depicting Londoners sheltering from the Blitz during the Second World War, along with other prints and graphic works on paper.
His forms are usually abstractions of the human figure, typically depicting mother-and-child or reclining figures. Moore's works are usually suggestive of the female body, apart from a phase in the 1950s when he sculpted family groups. His forms are generally pierced or contain hollow spaces. Many interpreters liken the undulating form of his reclining figures to the landscape and hills of his Yorkshire birthplace.
Moore became well known through his carved marble and larger-scale abstract cast bronze sculptures, and was instrumental in introducing a particular form of modernism to the United Kingdom. His ability in later life to fulfil large-scale commissions made him exceptionally wealthy. Despite this, he lived frugally; most of the money he earned went toward endowing the Henry Moore Foundation, which continues to support education and promotion of the arts.

- Leaving Home - Etching by E. Ramus After Franch Holl - 1878By Edmond RamusLocated in Roma, ITLeaving Home is a superb etching and drypoint on ivory-colored and laid paper, realized by Edmond Ramus, after Franch Holl, as the inscription on plate and out of the image report. On the higher-margin "Exposition Universelle de 1878". Printed by A. Salmon, this original print represents a crowded waiting room before a departure, better represents all the feelings, thoughts, postures, lost hopes of a departure after leaving home. With deep dramatic and vibrant blacks, and intense greys, sophisticated draperies and deep shadows, this artwork although his intensity has something of deep humanity, and is incredibly modern! A touching original print for your sophisticated private collection. In good conditions, except for a usual burnished paper and a diffused foxing does not affect the image, also the edges. Edmond Ramus (1822 – 1890) was a French etcher best known for his copies of paintings...Category

- Testa Colossale Creduta Rappresentare la Spagna - Etching by F. CecchiniBy Francesco CecchiniLocated in Roma, IT"Testa colossale creduta rappresentare la Spagna" (Kolossal head commonly belived to represent Spain) is a wonderful black and white etching on paper, realized by the Italian artist Francesco Cecchini (1790 - 1820 ca), after Agostino Tofanelli (Lucca 1770 - Rome 1834) , as the inscriptions on plates on lower margins report “Agostino Tofanelli delineò/ Francesco Cecchini incise Roma”.

Illustrazioni de' Monumenti scelti Borghesiani This collection in two volumes is a beautifully detailed catalog of classical sculptures collected by Prince Borghese (1730-1800) in his Villa on the Pincio. Ennio Quirino Visconti (1751 - 1818) wrote the texts that accompany the large branches depicting. To these writings, which were found and made available by the son of the illustrious archaeologist, the publishers added only a few illustrations relating to some minor monument of which copper had already been engraved. The engraved title-plate are signed by draughtsmen like Agostino Tofanelli, Stefano Tofanelli, Bernardino Nocchi, Domenico de Angelis or Teodoro Matteini, and by engravers Pietro Fontana Veneto, P. Vitali, Pietro Bettelini, Giovanni Folo Veneto, Giovanni Brunetti da Ravenna, Giovanni Ottaviani, Francesco Cecchini, Gio. Batta. Leonetti, Girolamo Carattoni, Domenico Cunego, Luigi Cunego, Alessandro Mochetti, Luigi Pizzi, Angelo Campanella or Giacomo Bossi.
