a Henry Moore as it was meant to be...

Was in Denmark last week, and saw this Henry Moore in the Louisiana Art Museum outside of Copenhagen. A wonderful setting for fine modern art. For example:


"to display sculpture to its best advantage outdoors, it must be set so that it relates to the sky rather than to the trees, a house, people, or other aspects of its surroundings. Only the sky, miles away, allows us to contrast infinity with reality, and so we are able to discover the sculpture's inner scale without comparison"
