Stylised seated figures of a man and a woman sat on a low bench, holding a baby between them. Originally the only one of four existing casts on open-air show in Great Britain. However, this work is now sited in the entrance hallway of Barclay Academy, Stevenage. It was cast at the Fiorini Foundry in London. It was Moore’s first large-scale commission after the war.
