EDITORS COMMENTS
This whimsical lithograph captures the surreal scene of a monkey running a barber shop. Created by an unknown French artist in the 20th century, this postcard print showcases the anthropomorphic charm that was popular during that era. In the image, we see a bustling barber shop filled with chimpanzees dressed in human clothing. The monkeys are seated on single chairs, patiently waiting their turn for a shave or haircut. One customer arrives, wearing a top hat and looking slightly bewildered by the unusual sight before him. The attention to detail is remarkable as each chimp is meticulously depicted with comical expressions and attire. The monkey barbers wear white coats, resembling real-life hairdressers, while others sport various costumes and fancy dress outfits. This satirical cartoon offers a scathing satire on societal norms and expectations through its clever use of animals in human roles. It invites viewers to ponder upon what it means to be civilized and challenges traditional notions of propriety. Displayed against a backdrop of richly upholstered furniture and furnishings, this litho exudes both humor and intrigue. A true testament to artistic creativity, this Monkey Running a Barber Shop print will surely bring joy and laughter to any art enthusiast's collection.
