In the aftermath of the Second World War and the Holocaust the rhetorical manner of much pre-war public art was discredited. Moore's work offered an alternative, more humane form of public sculpture. Such sculptures as Falling Warrior and Warrior with Shield (1953-4) inevitably evoked memories of conflict, the latter becoming a war memorial in the city of Arnhem in Holland (pictured below).
