Sculptures in the garden of the second house of Max Ernst and Dorthea Tanning in Seillans, where they lived since 1971. Seillans 1974.

In the sunlit garden of the Seillans home of Max Ernst and Dorothea Tanning, an abstract modernist sculpture is displayed on a stone base at the far end of a free-form swimming pool. Photographed in 1974, the scene includes the flagstone patio, the two-story stucco house with its dark, louvered shutters, and slender cypress trees. Beyond the property, the view opens up to a landscape of rolling, tree-covered hills.
