Max Ernst working on the painting "Schwalbennest". Seillans 1966.
In his studio in Seillans in 1966, Max Ernst is captured from a high angle, intently focused on his painting "Schwalbennest". Hunched over a large worktable that dominates the frame, his hands are pressed onto the abstract artwork—a complex web of white lines against a dark, textured background. The room is bathed in natural light, which illuminates jars and bottles of supplies on a low shelf and casts strong shadows across the tiled floor, revealing a space of intense creative activity.
