Stage of "L'oiseau Janus" ("Vogel Janus"). At Max Ernst's studio. Paris 1974.

The components of Max Ernst's sculpture 'L'oiseau Janus' ('Vogel Janus')—a stylized cast face and a scallop shell—rest in a shallow cardboard box. Photographed in the artist's Paris studio in 1974, the scene is set on a cluttered workbench strewn with tools and papers. Strong directional lighting from the upper right casts deep shadows, highlighting the whimsical figure’s three-dimensional forms.
