Description
The statuette depicts a monkey playing with a musical instrument in front of a small obelisk. The monkey is standing on its hind legs and the artist increased the length of its tail to support the weight of the figure. The artist also used small marks on its back and head to indicate areas of thicker fur. The top of the obelisk is adorned with a circular hole, probably representing the sun god Re, whom monkeys were believed to greet at sunrise.

Cette statuette représente un singe jouant d'un instrument de musique devant un petit obélisque. Le singe est debout sur ses pattes de derrière et l'artiste a augmenté la taille de sa queue pour supporter son poids. L'artiste a également utilisé de petites marques sur son dos et sa tête pour indiquer des zones de fourrure plus épaisses. Le sommet de l'obélisque est orné d'un orifice circulaire, représentant probablement le dieu soleil Rê auquel les singes souhaitaient la bienvenue au lever du soleil.
التمثال يشير إلى قرد يعزف على آلة موسيقية أمام مسلة صغيرة، واقفاً على أرجله الخلفية. وقد أطال الفنان طول الذيل حتى تتوازن النسب فى التمثال. كذلك إستخدم علامات صغيرة على رأس وظهر القرد ليشير إلى كثافة الشعر فى تلك المناطق. ويوجد ثقب فى أعلى المسلة قد يشير إلى رب الشمس "رع" ويعتقد أن القرود ترحب بشروق الشمس.
