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

In 1975, a painting by Max Ernst rests in the garden of the Seillans home he shared with Dorothea Tanning. Set against a wooded hillside, the framed artwork features stylized, white-outlined bird figures on a dark background. A large, patterned circle forms one bird’s body, while the composition is anchored below by two horizontal bands of ornate, classical-style molding with a leaf motif. In the distance, tiled roofs are nestled among the lush trees.
