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

An interior view of the eclectically furnished living room in Max Ernst and Dorothea Tanning’s second house in Seillans, 1974. A large painting of a dense, dark forest hangs over a rustic console table. The room’s center is occupied by a vintage refracting telescope on a wooden tripod, standing on a patterned rug. In the background, a tall, carved wooden figure stands in a corner, entwined with a large-leafed Monstera plant, near a seating area with a white sofa and wicker armchairs.
