Max Ernst and Werner Spies leaving the opening of the exhibition "Dorothea Tanning: Oeuvre" (retrospective), Centre National d'Art Contemporain, Paris, May 28 - July 8, 1974.

Art historian Werner Spies and artist Max Ernst converse as they leave the opening of the “Dorothea Tanning: Oeuvre” retrospective at the Centre National d'Art Contemporain in Paris, 1974. Ernst, turned in profile, cradles a large portfolio from the exhibition, its title partially visible. As Spies rests a hand on an open car door, he smiles warmly at his older companion. In the background, a stone statue of a seated, winged creature is visible on a pedestal.
