Max Ernst working on the painting "Schwalbennest" ("Un nid d'hirondelle", "A Swallow's Nest") 1966. Seillans 1966.

In his Seillans studio in 1966, Max Ernst is captured in a moment of quiet, creative absorption. He leans forward, intensely focused on the large artwork "Schwalbennest" ("A Swallow's Nest") spread out on a table. Dressed in a ribbed knit sweater over a collared shirt, his left hand holds a small tool against the art's textured surface, while his right is pressed flat upon it. Soft light from a nearby window illuminates the room, catching several large canvases propped against the wall.
