"Sanctuaire". Photo taken in the garden of the second house of Max Ernst and Dorothea Tanning in Seillans 1975.
In the garden of Max Ernst and Dorothea Tanning's house in Seillans, 1975, the mixed-media artwork "Sanctuaire" is displayed on a stand placed on a woven-seat chair. The composition features layered panels with strong textural contrasts. A central, three-dimensional wire structure, shaped like a house facade, encloses what appears to be a small plant. To its right, a vertical thermometer is mounted on a light-colored panel. The arrangement is set on a stone patio against a background of sunlit hillside vegetation.
