Henry Moore, OM, RA 11 3/4in. (29cm high) x 11 1/2in. (29cm wide) "Helmet Head No. 3" cast potinated bronze, 1960 On original copper covered wooden plinth, 12 1/4in. (31cm) x 11in. (28cm) x 2in. (5cm) high. Provenance: This work is part of a long series by Moore to feature one form enclosed within another. The original source for The Helmet series may be a group of drawings made in 1937 of an Ancient Greek helmet with eye-like slits. The Helmet 1939/40 (National Gallery of Scotland), features a strange figure standing inside the helmet which is at once threatening and protecting it. The Theme was developed with Helmet Head No. 1 and No. 2, both executed in 1950, Through Helmet Head and Shoulders, 1950 and 1952 versions, to Helmet Head No. 3 in 1960. Moore returned to the same subject periodically with Helmet Head No. 4 (1963) through to version No. 6 in 1975. "... the implications of the Helmet pieces are a good deal more complex. It is uncertain, for instance, whether the internal figure is protected or imprisoned by the helmet itself: whether it has, in short, got into a situation it can no longer control." (Henry Moore by John Russell, 1968). See illustration
