TQ3177 COOK'S ROAD 636-1/9/888 (South West side) 15/04/98 "Two-Piece Reclining Figure No.3" sculpture outside sub-station, Brandon Estate

II

Sculpture. 1961 by Henry Moore, sited 1962 by the London County Council. Bronze, from carved plaster cast; early eight feet long on plinth, set on grassy mound. A reclining figure of two halves, from Moore's first series to explore the relationship between elements thus disjointed, and based on studies of bones and flints. Its carved, rugged and naturalistic quality is well suited to its urban setting.
