• The relationship between mother and child is a key theme that Henry Moore worked on almost obsessively.
• From the 1920s until the end of his life, Moore explored this motif in works that range from highly figurative to completely abstract.
• He addressed both the human aspect of the mother and child relationship and the spatial relationship between large and small forms.
• In addition to the sculptural works, the drawings with their sculptural approach to the human form, occupy an extremely important artistic position in his oeuvre.
• This drawing has been in the same German private collection for almost 40 years.
The work is documented at the Henry Moore Foundation, Hertfordshire, with the number HMF 80 (75).

"From very early on I had an obsession with the mother and child theme. It has been a universal theme from the beginning of time and some of the earliest sculptures we've found from the Neolithic Age are of a mother and child. I discovered, when drawing, I could turn every little scribble, blot or smudge into a mother and child. So that I was conditioned, as it were, to see it in everything. I suppose it could be explained as a 'mother complex'."
