"Capricorne" in the garden of the second house of Max Ernst and Dorothea Tanning in Seillans 1975.

Photographed from a low angle in 1975, the sculpture 'Capricorne' stands in the garden of Max Ernst and Dorothea Tanning’s home in Seillans. The abstract, bird-like form is set against a plain sky, its dark, weathered texture highlighted by strong sunlight. It features a thick, circular body, a head with prominent spherical eyes, and two dissimilar wings—one ending in a flared, spade-like shape and the other tapering to a point.
