EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to Sri Lanka in 1692. Titled "Two monkeys Fishing baskets Rillow Wanderow Way" it showcases two playful monkeys engaging in an unusual fishing technique using baskets. The image is a reproduction of an etching by Jan Luyken, a renowned Dutch artist. The composition is filled with intricate details that bring the scene to life. The mischievous monkeys are perched on a riverbank, each holding their own basket as they eagerly wait for fish to swim into their makeshift traps. Their expressions convey both concentration and excitement, highlighting their determination to succeed at this unconventional method of fishing. Luyken's skillful use of lines and shading adds depth and texture to the artwork, making it visually compelling. The print measures 170mm in height and 125mm in width, allowing viewers to appreciate every delicate stroke made by the artist. This enchanting piece not only captures a whimsical moment between two curious primates but also serves as a testament to the creativity found within nature itself. It reminds us that even animals can find innovative ways to adapt and survive in their environment. Whether displayed as part of an art collection or simply enjoyed for its aesthetic appeal, this print invites us into a world where imagination meets reality – where two monkeys embark on an extraordinary fishing adventure using nothing more than their wit and some humble baskets.
