Street Fight
1935

An etching depicting a chaotic scene with anthropomorphic monkeys engaged in various activities that mimic human behavior. Some monkeys are fighting and wrestling in the center, while others are drinking, conversing, or observing the commotion. The setting appears to be a tavern with shelves of bottles in the background, and the artwork is signed "Stand Fast" in the lower right corner. The paper has some discoloration and tears, indicating age.
