Max Ernst working on the painting "Schwalbennest". Seillans 1966.

From a high angle, Max Ernst is seen in his Seillans studio in 1966, leaning over a large worktable. His hands are pressed onto the massive canvas of his painting "Schwalbennest," an abstract work featuring a complex web of white lines against a dark, textured background. The studio is filled with natural light, illuminating a low shelving unit along the back wall cluttered with bottles, jars, and other art supplies.
