“We went together over spacious lawns and hillocks populated by his monumental bronzes, photographing Moore with his sculptures. He commented frequently on the play of natural light on his work – a fascination he had adapted to the indoor Centre in Toronto. It was designed under his supervision to provide an easy flow of overhead light.”

Henry Moore was photographed on this day, May 7, in 1949 (and subsequently in 1970, with fellow sculptors Lipchitz and Marini; and in 1972 and 1973).
