Theme: At Ease Artist: Margaret DODD Birth/Death: 1941 Title: Bridal Holden Credit Line: On loan from a private collection to the Art Gallery of South Australia, Adelaide. Bridal Holden is Dodd’s vision of a virginal, innocent bride, complete with rosebuds, veil and satin under-garments. It is the ultimate absurdity of unity, displayed between a masculine Australian icon and feminine spectacle, achieved fully in the ritual of marriage. More details Click image to enlarge
