Moore was considered one of the greatest window display artists of the 20th century. In part: ".A brief note before my departure for the United States, to send the warm thanks of Madame Karsh and myself for the beautiful Chri…stmas Tree lights. Aside from their natural glow, coming from a friend they added much to the brightness of our Christmas.
