Max Ernst. Maximiliana…

Peter Schamoni
1966 Germany 12 minutes German

A double homage to painter Max Ernst and lithographer-astronomer E.W.L. Tempel, whom the painter admired and to whom he dedicated a gorgeous book. It’s a masterstroke when the surrealist opens the shutters in his house in Provence and proclaims before God and the world: “He was a genius, but without a diploma!”
