Max Ernst working on sculpture "L'oiseau Janus" ("Vogel Janus") at his studio in Paris 1974.

In his Paris studio in 1974, Max Ernst works on his sculpture "L'oiseau Janus" ("Vogel Janus"). The white-haired artist, wearing a patterned shirt and a cardigan, sits at his heavily cluttered wooden desk with a focused expression. His hands rest amidst a creative disarray of papers, art supplies, and boxes. Behind him, the wall serves as a display for his tools and other works, including a prominent dark, totemic sculpture, while soft natural light from a large window illuminates the scene.
