Boss

As seen in the British Museum.

 

The inscription says:

 

"Boss, 1985

By Hamada Chimei (born 1917)

 

Hamada is best known as a print artist. He

came to sculpture quite late, at the age of 65,

and has described the childlike pleasure of

playing with clay to create the models for his

bronzes. 'Boss' the large monkey balancing on

an unstable pile of chairs, develops an earlier

print theme of a howling monkey on top of a

pyramid of human figures.
