Max Ernst at the opening of the exhibition "Dorothea Tanning: Oeuvre" (retrospective), Centre National d'Art Contemporain CNAC, Paris, May 28 - July 8, 1974.
Artist Max Ernst is captured in a moment of intense conversation at the opening of his wife Dorothea Tanning’s retrospective exhibition in Paris, 1974. With deep-set eyes behind thick, dark-rimmed glasses, the elderly artist looks intently at his companion. Dressed in a suit jacket and patterned shirt, he holds a small object in his right hand as if gesturing to emphasize a point. The candid, black and white close-up highlights the textures of his face and clothing, creating an intimate atmosphere.
