Discover *Portraits de l’artiste en singe : Les singeries en peinture* (Portraits of the Artist as Monkey: Monkey Art in Painting) by Bertrand Marret (Somogy Éditions d’Art, 2001, ISBN 9782850564437), a definitive work on the theme of the monkey in Western art. This 128-page paperback, in French and in very good condition, explores the iconographic tradition of monkey art, paintings in which the monkey, a caricature of man and a symbol of vain imitation, becomes the artist’s jester double. From David Teniers the Younger in 17th-century Flanders to Dürer, Bruegel, Mantegna, Goya, Delacroix, and Picasso, the author analyzes how genre painting transforms the bestiary into a pictorial fable about artistic creation.
A fascinating book for lovers of art history, animal iconography, and European painting, rare and in excellent condition.
