The present work is a study for the relief Two Females, 1937-8 (Tate Collection). The artist explained that the work was an interpretation of two contrasting concepts of the female form; the one virginal, the other sexual and indicative of fertility. Two Females was the last but one of a series of twelve surviving reliefs, the earliest of which was begun in 1934, and was greatly admired by Hans Arp.
