JD Fergusson often worked from sketches or memories that he had stored away for many years. After a twenty year interval, he returned to the first idyllic summer that he and Margaret Morris spent together in the south of France in 1914.
Iconic Fergussons on until 27 October.

Fergusson often worked from sketches or memories that he had stored away for many years. Here, after a twenty year interval, he returned to the first idyllic summer that he and Morris spent together in the south of France in 1914, shortly after they first met #JDFergusson #art
Roses were a favourite flower of Fergusson's. The paint in this image is built up thickly in layers to create an added sense of volume and depth in the blooms #StillLife #Roses #JDFergusson
Still life offered a useful outlet for experimentation during Fergusson's Paris years as the expressive brushwork of this painting suggests #JDFergusson #experiments #StillLife
The exoticism of this image provides links with Fergusson's earlier portraits. During his Paris years Fergusson painted many studio portraits, typically setting his sitters against luxuriant textile drapes decorated with flowers and foliage #portrait #fineart #JDFergusson
Margaret Morris became an accomplished artist in her own right. Her work was heavily influenced by Fergusson #partnership #France #art
Margaret Morris ran a summer dance school in Antibes in the south of France but still found time to paint #active #art #multitalented
