Monkeys in a Cherry Tree; Monkeys on a Rock Ledge

Mori Sosen

Cleveland Museum of Art

Two-panel painting with a sepia tone background. Left panel: A monkey hangs upside down from a tree branch with leaves, while another monkey sits on a rock. Right panel: Two monkeys hang from a tree branch with blossoms, one above the other. The panels are vertically oriented and have a border with a subtle pattern along the edges. The artwork features Asian-style calligraphy in the bottom corners, accompanied by red seals. The trees have sparse foliage, with the left one having green leaves and the right one having blossoms. The composition suggests a natural setting.
