This charming 19th-century lithograph captures a whimsical moment as a monkey gracefully salutes by raising his hat. The intricate details of the illustration showcase the playful nature of the scene, with the monkey's expression conveying a sense of mischief and curiosity.
The vibrant colors bring life to the image, highlighting the intricate patterns on the monkey's hat and coat. The composition is balanced and harmonious, drawing viewers into this enchanting world where animals take on human-like gestures.
This print was originally created for "Bubbles," edited by Dr. Barnardo in Volume 2 of The Children's Bookroom around 1895. It reflects a time when illustrations were an essential part of storytelling, capturing imaginations and bringing characters to life.
The inclusion of a dog in the background adds another layer of interest to the scene, creating a dynamic interaction between different animal species. Overall, this print is not just a visual delight but also serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with anthropomorphism in art.
