{"product_id":"drawing-in-the-dark-henry-moore-s-coalmining-commission","title":"Drawing in the Dark: Henry Moore's Coalmining Commission","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1941, Henry Moore accepted a wartime commission that took him underground at Wheldale Colliery, the Yorkshire mine where his father had worked. The drawings that followed give bodies, tools and passages a remarkable physical presence, shaped by confined space and limited light. Chris Owen’s study examines this less familiar part of Moore’s career.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSketches, finished drawings and contextual photographs help explain how the commission developed and why it mattered to the artist’s later work. Owen follows the project from observation in the mine to its wider artistic consequences. A particularly fitting choice for readers interested in modern British drawing, industrial subjects and the ways darkness can become an active part of a picture’s structure and emotional force.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBook Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthor \/ editor: Chris Owen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublisher: Lund Humphries Publishers Ltd\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Hardback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISBN: 9781848226036\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublication date: 02\/11\/2022\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLanguage: English\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDelivery \u0026amp; Returns\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSupplied to order, subject to availability.
