In this preparatory sketch Moore has utilized the process of carbon line, placing a sheet of carbon paper between two sheets of paper in order to transfer the drawing from the upper sheet to that below. Drawing was of great importance to Moore as an intermediate step in the creation of sculpture, tapestries and prints and through this process he was able to experiment and develop his ideas. The present drawing also relates to another drawing from 1975, 'Two Women and a Child' (Garrould no. AG 75.55), and was translated into the medium of tapestry 'Two Seated Women and a Child' (Garrould no. 9) and an etching 'Mother and Child XXIX' (Cramer, no. 699).
