    This antique netsuke is of a man with five monkeys around his feet, one of which is carrying a baby on its back, and two monkeys popping out a box on the mans back. All the monkeys are clothed.

      Love this but hate monkeys! Have you ever spent nights in jungles where Howlers live? My other experiences have been that they smell, steal, bite & get to be obnoxious drunks & can't tell a joke without ruining it. Maybe man is evolved from apes after all! LOL Nice piece.
