What are a few of the major influences on Henry Moore's artwork?
Henry Moore moved to London to study art and often visited the British Museum where he was inspired by ancient sculptures from Egypt, Africa and Mexico. His sculptures have a semi-abstract nature, but he often dabbled in other styles of art. Moore even created his own form of modernism with an eye toward the abstract. On 1stDibs, find a variety of original artwork from top artists.
