Darwin Ape: Francisco Ramo

Francisco Ramo - circa 1930 - bronze reproduction - Darwin Ape - France.

Acquired from an art store in Toronto.

This is a bronze reproduction by Austin Sculpture. We enjoy the sarcastic humour of the ape pondering a human skull atop a stack of books which include Darwin. The pose is reminiscent of Rodin's The Thinker, the message is pure Ramo.
