Netsuke of Three Monkeys Intertwined
Dark brown wooden sculpture of three monkeys intertwined. The monkeys are carved to appear as if they are embracing each other, forming a single, cohesive piece. The monkey on the left has its hand covering its eyes; the middle monkey has its hand covering its ears; and the monkey on the right has its hand covering its mouth. The sculpture is shiny, suggesting it is made of polished wood. The background of the image is light gray, with a shadow cast by the sculpture. The sculpture appears to be a netsuke, titled "Netsuke of Three Monkeys Intertwined".
