Sculptures in the garden of the second house of Max Ernst and Dorthea Tanning in Seillans, where they lived since 1971. Seillans 1975.

A black and white contact sheet from 1975 captures abstract metal sculptures in the garden of the Seillans home shared by Max Ernst and Dorothea Tanning. The frames, arranged in vertical columns, reveal an exploration of the works from various angles and distances. Among the pieces are a stylized head with round eyes and a slender, anthropomorphic figure. The format, complete with visible sprocket holes and film markings, offers insight into the photographic process while highlighting the form and texture of the welded sculptures under strong natural light.
