Max Ernst and Dorothea Tanning in the gardens of her house at Seillans 1966. He holds the painting Schmetterling-Steuerzahler (papillon contribuable), for which he has used a piece of wallpaper, a flybat and a note from the income tax officer concerning his income tax return.

In the sunlit gardens of her house at Seillans in 1966, a smiling Dorothea Tanning playfully balances a wicker object on her head. Beside her stands Max Ernst, holding his painting "Schmetterling-Steuerzahler (papillon contribuable)," a work for which he used a piece of wallpaper, a flybat, and a note from his income tax officer. Long shadows stretch across the rustic setting, where their small, long-haired dog rests on the grass near a low stone wall.
