Max Ernst and Dorothea Tanning in the gardens of her house at Seillans, 1966. While Tanning playfully balances a round wicker object on her head, Ernst, wearing a straw hat, holds his painting *Schmetterling-Steuerzahler* (papillon contribuable). For this work, he used a piece of wallpaper, a flybat, and a note from the income tax officer concerning his return. A small dog walks across the sunlit lawn near the espaliered trees growing against the garden wall.
