Painter in a poetic, naïve style reminiscent of the work of the Douanier Rousseau, her real name was Eden Fleming. She adopted E Box when she began exhibiting in the late 1940s, having trained for two years at Regent Street Polytechnic School of Art, then being prevented from painting by the war years. Was married to Marston Fleming, senior research fellow at Imperial College, and with him travelled widely in continental Europe, North America, Russia, Africa and Asia, what she saw contributing to her pictures. An admirer of these was the artist Howard Hodgkin, who wrote an appreciation for the catalogue of her retrospective at David Carritt Ltd, 1981. Other retrospectives were held at St George’s Hall, King’s Lynn, 1956, and Fermoy Art Gallery there, 1979.
