Max Ernst - Composition, 1958 - Stencil

Max Ernst : Born in 1891 in Brühl, Max Ernst, was a german painter and sculptor, linked to Dada and surrealist movement.
Stencil : The stencil is a printing technique made using a cover (in zinc for example) that prevents paint or ink from flowing. The stencil is then applied to the printed proof by etching, lithography, screen printing or phototyping. Many stencils must be traced and cut to obtain an accurate reproduction of the work.
