'Sheep has always had some special meaning for me, more so than cows or horses, whether it is that I saw them as a boy in parts of Yorkshire landscape or whether it's from reading the Bible in early childhood where sheep have a mention, and not horses for instance, I really would not like to say.'

After observing for hours the sheep out of his studio window at Perry Green, Henry Moore made numerous drawings which he assembled in his Sheep Sketchbook as well as printing the present series of 12 etchings, representing a kind of life cycle, from the birth of the lambs to growing up and the sheep being shorn.
