Max Ernst signing a catalogue at the opening of the exhibition "Dorothea Tanning: Oeuvre" (retrospective), Centre National d'Art Contemporain CNAC, Paris, May 28 - July 8, 1974.

With wispy white hair and thick-rimmed glasses, artist Max Ernst is captured in a moment of concentration. He signs a catalogue at the opening of the retrospective exhibition for his wife, Dorothea Tanning, at the Centre National d'Art Contemporain in Paris on May 28, 1974. Dressed in a dark suit, his gaze is fixed downward while another person’s hands, visible in the foreground, hold the book steady.
