"Beim Ersten Klaren Wort - (At The First Clear Word)" is a well-known painting by the German Dadaist and surrealist Max Ernst. A female hand reaches through an opening on a wall, with fingers awkwardly crossed and seems to be holding precariously a small bright red sphere.


This, in turn, is connected by a crude contraption of string, nails and a colored pin to a huge phasmid (a stick insect), its mouthparts just barely protruding above the wall, offering only a tiny hint of the insect’s existence to anyone who observes behind the separation barrier. The clear blue sky, the choice of colors, the meticulously rendered shadows are all reminiscent of De Chirico’s paintings, offering to the scene a strong dream-like atmosphere of stillness and a sober feeling of some imminent disaster.

"Beim Ersten Klaren Wort - (At The First Clear Word)" is a well-known painting by the German Dadaist and surrealist Max Ernst. A female hand reaches through an opening on a wall, with fingers awkwardly crossed and seems to be holding precariously a small bright red sphere. This, in turn, is connected by a crude contraption of string, nails and a colored pin to a huge phasmid (a stick insect), its mouthparts just barely protruding above the wall, offering only a tiny hint of the insect’s existence to anyone who observes behind the separation barrier. The clear blue sky, the choice of colors, the meticulously rendered shadows are all reminiscent of De Chirico’s paintings, offering to the scene a strong dream-like atmosphere of stillness and a sober feeling of some imminent disaster.

Max Ernst was a German painter, sculptor, graphic artist, and poet. A prolific artist, Ernst was a primary pioneer of the Dada movement and Surrealism.   Max Ernst attacked the conventions and traditions of art, all the while possessing a thorough knowledge of European art history. He questioned the sanctity of art by creating non-representational works without clear narratives, by making sport of religious icons, and by formulating new means of creating artworks to express the modern condition.
