Heads 1939

"Heads" (1939) by French artist Jacques Hérold (1910-1987) is a surrealist oil painting that depicts a fragmented, distorted human figure. The piece features a central head with a gaping mouth, surrounded by a multitude of abstract, organic forms, seemingly growing from and around the body. The artwork, with its striking use of color and the unsettling imagery, exemplifies the surrealist fascination with dreams, the subconscious, and the exploration of human perception.
