About the Item

Japanese Monkey Prints: Serene 19th-Century Nature Studies with Peaches This enchanting pair of Japanese prints captures two intimate scenes of monkeys in their natural habitat, exemplifying the refined sensibility and deep connection to nature found in traditional Japanese art. Created in the late 19th century, these images were published by Sampson Low & Co. and lithographed in Paris by Imp. Lemercier & Cie. The prints beautifully depict the warmth and playfulness of these animals—one pair sitting calmly together and another pair engaging playfully among the branches of a fruit-laden peach tree. The first scene focuses on two monkeys resting on the ground, their peaceful expressions and detailed fur textures highlighting the artist’s deep observation of the natural world. The second scene adds dynamic movement and interaction as a mother gently watches over her young as it clambers up the tree, surrounded by ripening peaches—a symbol of longevity and prosperity in East Asian art. Rendered in soft earth tones with delicate shading, these prints demonstrate the artist’s skill in capturing not only the physical form but also the quiet personality and tenderness of the animals. The golden borders around each panel, combined with the subtle textures of the backgrounds, enhance the prints’ richness and sense of harmony. For collectors of Japanese art or those interested in animal studies and traditional nature scenes, these prints represent both a window into the aesthetic sensibility of Meiji-era Japan and a timeless celebration of the natural world. Condition Report: Both prints are in good condition with only minor foxing at the borders, typical of their age. The colors and details remain crisp, with no tears or significant marks. Framing Tips: These prints will look exquisite in simple dark wooden frames to complement the soft earth tones. A warm ivory or cream mat will highlight the delicate textures and the golden borders, creating a balanced and elegant presentation.
