Lucile Blanch

Lady with Monkeys
1928

Illustration of a circus scene featuring a woman in a white costume standing in the center with a chimpanzee's arm around her shoulder. To her left, another chimpanzee rides a small bicycle, and to her right, a third chimpanzee kneels on the ground wearing a dress and a hat. In the background, a crowd of spectators can be seen, and there are circus tents and an American flag motif on the platform. The artwork has a vintage feel and is signed by the artist in the bottom right corner.
