You lost me. Are you trying to create box and whisker plots or do you just
want rectangles? N = 2 is awfully small dataset for box/whisker plots. If
all you want are the rectangles -- use those directly:
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib.patches import Rectangle
data = np.array([[0.27,0.43],[0.17,0.35]])
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
box_width = 0.5
for pos, row in enumerate(data):
xy = (pos+1, np.min(row))
box_height = np.max(row) - np.min(row)
box = Rectangle(xy, box_width, box_height, facecolor='white',
edgecolor='black', linewidth=1.5)
ax.add_patch(box)
ax.set_xlim([0, pos+2])
ax.set_ylim([0, data.max()*1.25])
plt.show()
