Le menuet

From Annie Bouquet’s celebrated Singeries collection — inspired by the famous monkey scenes at the Château de Chantilly. The Minuet Monkey sways with grace; one almost hears the harpsichord pulling him into the dance. Its soft colouring brings the quiet calm of salon dancing.

Singeries (from the French singe, monkey) are a beloved French decorative art tradition from the 18th century, depicting monkeys in elegant human activities.
