The Visit to Ephesus 1973

"The Visit to Ephesus" (1973) by Paul Delvaux is a surrealist painting that showcases the artist's signature style of elongated figures and dreamlike landscapes. The work depicts a series of figures in a nocturnal setting, with classical architecture and a surreal tramway in the background. The composition is layered and enigmatic, prompting viewers to question the meaning and context of the scene. Delvaux's paintings often explore themes of solitude, desire, and the subconscious, creating an atmosphere of both beauty and unease.
