Monkey Harpist, c. 1875



Monkey Harpist, c. 1875

Made by Vichy in Paris, France. Vichy-made automata were known for the "flexibility and precision of their gestures" and "good taste of their costumes," according to an 1878 observer. This well-dressed harpist "plucks' the harp as a concealed musical box mechanism plays a song from the comedic opera bouffe, Giroflé-Girofla.

At the Morris Museum in Morristown, New Jersey

Made by Phalibois in Paris France. As he dabs his lips with a handkerchief and swings his ornate cane, this monkey epitomizes the "dandy" who emerged in 1790s London and appeared in French society by the 1820s. Dandies placed huge importance on looks and tried to imitate an aristocratic lifestyle.


Monkey Musicians, c. 1855
Made by Théroude in Paris France. Once, aristocrats would have musicians play for them. But it is after the French Revolution, and the tables have turned! Here, aristocrats, in the form of monkeys, are the ones doing the entertaining.

Люблю кукольные автоматы. Спасибо за подборку.
Очень понравился пишущий мальчик с каркасным телом и деревянная парочка марионеточная. А некоторые жутковаты
*даже для меня:)*
