At the studio of Max Ernst. Seillans 1975.

In Max Ernst’s spacious studio in Seillans, 1975, easels hold various works in progress. A heavy-duty studio easel with a crank mechanism stands centrally. Against the back wall, a large, multi-drawer flat file cabinet is topped with stacked canvases, while low shelves along the side are filled with an assortment of bottles, jars, and art supplies. The room, with its wooden floors and exposed ceiling beams, is the picture of a well-used creative workspace.
