The monumental themes of Henry Moore's sculpture—the Reclining Figure, the Mother and Child, the King and Queen—echo the powerful creations of prehistoric art, of tribal art, of the art of Sumer and Egypt. They represent the intangible, vital processes of life itself — Sir Herbert Read calls them "forms symbolic of the essential nature of living organisms and forms symbolic of the racial experiences that have left an impress on our mental constitution—the archetypal patterns of birth and death, of social conflict and tragic drama".
