Summary

Two casts of Henry Moore's bronze "Seated Figure" (1956-1957) in a corner of the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden's Sculpture Garden. Later the sculpture on the left was to replace the one on the right. A bequest of approximately 5,500 items was delivered to the Museum earlier in 1986, some of which were duplicate casts of previously acquired works.
