Widely hailed as a revelation and as a beautiful creation in its own right when first published in hardback, "Henry Moore Textiles" is now available in a handsome paperback edition to coincide with ongoing exhibitions of Moore's work. Moore's numerous designs for textiles, only a few of which reached production, have until recently remained virtually unknown.
