EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print titled "Monkey Dandy, from Monkey-ana, or Men in Miniature, July 1828" by Thomas Landseer takes us on a delightful journey into the world of anthropomorphic art. Created in Britain during the 19th century, this etching on chine collé showcases the artist's unique blend of animal portrayal and human characteristics. In this whimsical image, we see a dapper monkey dressed as a fashionable gentleman of his time. Sporting an impeccably tailored suit complete with top hat and monocle, he exudes charm and elegance. The monkey's foppish attire reflects the fashion trends prevalent during that era. Drawing inspiration from literature, Landseer cleverly alludes to Shakespeare's iconic play "King Lear".
