The Pink Box, Margaret Morris (1929), Private Collection.
Oil on canvas, 61 x 55.5 cms.
Fergusson was very interested in sculpture and here includes a sandstone figure of 'Eastre', the Celtic Goddess of Spring. Fergusson had studied Asian sculpture at the Trocadero Museum in Paris and was particularly influenced by Cambodian and Indian temple statuary. Margaret Morris was also fascinated by eastern art and photographs from her dance school show students adopting poses from statues. The inclusion of the voluptuous sculpture, together with the prominent fruit and sensuality of this painting, suggest a symbolic reference to Fertility.
