Stage of "L'oiseau Janus" ("Vogel Janus"). At Max Ernst's studio. Paris 1974.

In Max Ernst's Paris studio in 1974, his sculpture "L'oiseau Janus" is seen in progress. Resting inside a cardboard box on a cluttered work surface, the small, white figure is a stylized creature with a round, flat face, protruding circular eyes, and a body formed from a scallop shell. The high-angle shot captures the work amidst the tools and materials of its creation, such as notebooks and jars, offering a glimpse into the artistic process.
