I wonder how many "Nixon's Nose" sculptures there are! The New York Botanical Garden had a Moore exhibit of sculptures through the gardens last year, and one of these was there. Now I know there are at least three out there! Did he mass produce them?
ReplyDeleteI think my Hong Kong book said there are eight of them, but a more-than-quick google search does not confirm that. It could be that each one is different, but my impression is that he was taken with the theme.
