A room in the second house of Max Ernst and Dorothea Tanning. Seillans 1974.

A wide, fisheye-lens view reveals the interior of a room in the second Seillans house of Max Ernst and Dorothea Tanning in 1974. A large landscape painting hangs over a low console table, flanked by two traditional wooden chairs. In the foreground, a rug with a bold geometric pattern covers the herringbone wood floor, surrounded by several wicker chairs. The wide-angle lens creates a distinct barrel distortion, curving the lines of the walls, floor, and ceiling.

On the wall: "A Moment of Calm" ("Un peu de calme"), 1939
On the sideboard from left: "Roi, reine et fou" ("König, Dame und Läufer) 1929/30
"Femme", 1960
