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

Three stylized, anthropomorphic stone sculptures stand in the garden of the second house of Max Ernst and Dorothea Tanning in Seillans, 1975. Arranged on a strip of grass before a dense hedge, the figures include a seated, blocky form on a bench; a central bust on a pedestal; and a figure with a house-shaped head holding its knees. In the foreground, a paved path is crossed by long, stark shadows, indicating bright sunlight, while a tree-covered hill rises in the background.
