A hauntingly surreal hand-colored gelatin silver print, this work features Bellmer's iconic dismembered doll arranged in an unsettling yet meticulously composed tableau that blurs the boundaries between desire, violence, and the uncanny. The delicate hand-applied color softens yet intensifies the disturbing imagery, lending an almost dreamlike quality to the contorted artificial flesh. Created in 1949, this piece exemplifies Bellmer's deeply provocative exploration of the body as a malleable, fragmented object of obsession rooted in Surrealist ideology.
