A striking color lithograph by the surrealist master Max Ernst, *Hibou-Arlequin* (Harlequin Owl) merges the enigmatic imagery of a fantastical owl with the diamond-patterned costume of the traditional harlequin figure. Ernst's distinctive surrealist vision transforms these two iconic motifs into a haunting yet playful hybrid creature, rendered through bold, expressive lines and vibrant color. Printed on fine Rives BFK paper with full margins, this lithograph exemplifies Ernst's mastery of the printmaking medium and his lifelong fascination with mythological and totemic imagery.
