Bronze Reclining Figure In The Style Of Henry Moore, Late 20th Century

Chairish

$678

An abstract bronze modernist sculpture created in the distinctive style of the renowned British sculptor Henry Moore and modeled after his famous "Reclining Figure No. 2" (conceived in 1952–1953). The piece features a rich, antiqued verdigris patina, mimicking the patina of outdoor and gallery bronze works. This piece is unsigned and likely produced in the 1970s to 1980s. Throughout his career, the reclining female figure was an absolute obsession for Henry Moore, serving as a signature vehicle for his formal experimentation. The sculpture demonstrates Moore's characteristic style, bridging the gap between abstraction and figuration. The human shape is reduced to smooth, undulating contours that evoke natural landscapes, such as rolling hills, pebbles, or eroded rocks. A central element is the intentional hollow or hole that pierces the torso. Moore pioneered this use of negative space, turning voids into essential sculptural components that invite light and change how space interacts with the figure.
