"La plus belle" in the garden of the second house of Max Ernst and Dorothea Tanning in Seillans 1975.

Max Ernst’s sculpture "La plus belle" stands in the sunlit garden of the second house he shared with Dorothea Tanning in Seillans, 1975. The tall, abstract humanoid figure features a stylized ovoid head and a serene, minimalist expression. Its smooth, S-curved torso contrasts with a rough, heavily textured conical base. Positioned in a corner between a whitewashed surface and a weathered stone wall, the sculpture casts a sharp, defined shadow on the flagstone paving, accentuating its slender form.
