Title
Tsuba with Monkeys
Description
English: On the right side of this tsuba are four monkeys grooming each other. An adult holds a young monkey at the rear of the grouping. In the front, another young monkey hangs upside down from the arm of the second adult. The reverse shows an overhanging rock on the right with a stream along the bottom. As in the west, monkeys were often anthropomorphized in Japanese legends and art.
