• In 1969, he made first sketches and the maquette for the large "Sheep Piece" from 1971/72.
• Moore created a sculpture of two different parts that touch each other; with the combination of a smaller, passive form and a larger, more active one, he drew on the mother-child theme that is so prevalent in his oeuvre.
• From the window of his studio, Moore looked onto a sheep pasture, which inspired him to drawings of sheep that eventually let to the monumental "Sheep Piece".

"I'll produce several maquettes, not much bigger than one's hand, certainly small enough to hold in one's hand [..] and you have a complete grasp of their shape from all around the whole time."
Henry Moore, in: Philip James, Henry Moore on Sculpture, London 1966.
"Once I have reached the maquette stage, and I hold the sculpture in my hand, I often decide whether I will make it life-size, even bigger than life-size or smaller, meaning that I determine its actual 'physical' size. “
