Max Ernst. Behind him the painting "Tremblement de terre printanier". Seillans 1966.

In his Seillans studio in 1966, artist Max Ernst looks directly at the camera with a warm, crinkled smile. Dressed in a paint-splattered work jacket and holding a palette knife, he is positioned before his large abstract painting, "Tremblement de terre printanier." The artwork, resting on an easel, dominates the frame with its complex network of dark lines incised into a textured background. The studio is characterized by a tiled floor and dark wooden ceiling beams.
