Nella vita di Henry Moore
Tutta la vita1940–1986
A bomb in Hampstead: the move to Hoglands
In September 1940 bomb shrapnel hit the Moores’ Hampstead home and they left London for Hoglands, a farmhouse in the hamlet of Perry Green near Much Hadham in Hertfordshire. It remained Moore’s home and workshop for the rest of his life; though he grew wealthy he never felt the need to move to larger premises.

Up to forty exhibitions a year
By the end of the 1970s there were some forty exhibitions a year featuring Moore’s work, and the number of commissions kept growing.
