Max Ernst's tools at his studio. With an African tribal art mask. Paris 1974.
In Max Ernst's Paris studio in 1974, a large, geometrically-patterned African tribal art mask hangs centrally on a wall. The mask, composed of a circular head and a long stem, is surrounded by the artist’s tools, including scrapers, a screwdriver, and pliers. To the left, a dark jacket hangs on a hook, while to the right, another abstract sculpture stands near a roll of wire and a wooden box. Strong shadows cast on the wall indicate a direct light source from the side.
