Max Ernst working on the painting "Schwalbennest". Seillans 1966.
From a high-angle perspective, artist Max Ernst leans over a large workbench in his Seillans studio, focused on his 1966 painting "Schwalbennest". Wearing a knit sweater, he uses both hands to press a roller onto the large, textured artwork covering the table. Bright daylight streams through an open doorway behind him, illuminating the artist's cluttered shelves of bottles, jars, and brushes. The floor is tiled, and to the side sits a simple metal folding chair.
