About Kaninchen mit Kamm und Mundharmonika

The artwork, titled “Kaninchen mit Kamm und Mundharmonika”, was created by the artist Wols in 1937. It belongs to the Surrealism art movement and is categorized as a photograph. The imagery depicted in the artwork is a striking composition, reflecting the surrealist ethos of juxtaposing disjointed elements to evoke a sense of the uncanny.

In the artwork, one can observe a curious arrangement of objects: what appears to be parts of a rabbit, including the head and a limb, set against a dark background. These organic elements are complemented by the presence of a comb and a harmonica, objects that are incongruous yet compelling in their placement. The lighting is stark, enhancing the textural details of the rabbit parts, as well as the sheen of the harmonica and the form of the comb. The overall effect is one of unease and intrigue, typical of surrealist works, as it invites the viewer to ponder the symbolic relationship between the disparate elements presented.
