I really recommend this FREE exhibition at the St Albans Musem. During his time as a war artist, Henry Moore spent time down the pits showing how the miners kept the country going during WW2. There's an amazing use of mixed media, with shades of William (and Quentin!) Blake, Picasso and Michelangelo as well as Moore's own sculptural figures. Lovely treatment of the wood in the pit props and the rocks of the mines too. And all done in the dark, just by the light of his head torch!
