Max Ernst



I chose this specific painting by Max Ernst ( surrealist) because it really intrigued me how he illustrated the moon in a geometric way. Since my concentration mostly has to do with mental issues and phobia, it struck me how this painting seems to show the innocence of the girl outside even though there might be deeper problems lingering inside. The person she is holding with such ease displays her solicitous behavior and makes the painting more powerful. The Cactus is symbolic as it makes the viewers feel like the girl is in an isolated place
