About the piece
Created by the celebrated Japanese artist Nagasawa Rosetsu in 1796, this ink wash painting depicts two macaques with remarkably human-like expressions. The composition balances the bold, textured forms of the rock and figures against an expansive, misty background, punctuated by the delicate red leaves of climbing vines by a mountain stream.
