In 2012, the council of the London Borough of Tower Hamlets announced its plans to sell another version of Draped Seated Woman 1957–58, a 1.6-tonne bronze sculpture. Moore, a well-known socialist, had sold the sculpture at a fraction of its market value to the former London County Council on the understanding that it would be displayed in a public space and might enrich the lives of those living in a socially deprived area. Nicknamed Old Flo, it was installed on the Stifford council estate in 1962 but was vandalised and moved to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park in 1997.
In 2012, the London Borough of Tower Hamlets council announced its intention to sell another version of Draped Seated Woman 1957–58, a substantial bronze sculpture. Moore, a prominent socialist, had sold it at a lower price to the former London County Council with the expectation that it would be displayed in a public setting and contribute positively to the lives of those residing in an economically disadvantaged area. Nicknamed Old Flo, it was installed on the Stifford council estate in 1962 but was vandalized and relocated to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park in 1997.
