About the Item

"Miserable Monkey" Jigokudani National Park, Japan 2013 Archival Pigment Print on 315gsm Hahnemühle Photo Rag Baryta Paper Each is signed, dated and numbered on the front. Edition Size: 12 Available sizes: Standard Size Image Size:: 37 x 56 inches Framed Size: 52 x 71 inches Large Size Image Size:: 56 x 84 inches Framed Size: 71 x 99 inches "Grumpy Monkey has been one of our most popular images over the years and has sold out despite the fact that it was technically not my strongest work - it was just so dark when I took the image and this meant very marginal camera settings. But in a way, the doom and gloom makes the image. We get calls every week from galleries about its availability, but it has gone. Deep in our ling system we have discovered another strong picture of the same Japanese Macaque in the hot springs that night. I would immediately say that it is not as powerful as the original, but equally we felt we should show it to you. His mood is miserable now rather than just grumpy." - David Yarrow

Rwanda, 2019 Archival Pigment Print on 315gsm Hahnemühle Photo Rag Baryta Paper Each is signed, dated and numbered on the front. Edition Size: 12 Available sizes: 48 x 59 inches 67 x 83 inches All prints are on 315gsm Hahnemühle photo rag Baryta paper and varnished after processing to give both endurance and sheen. Each is signed, dated and numbered on the front. Price includes David Yarrow's custom black ash frame, white archival matting and protective UV acrylic. For unframed, $1,500 will be deducted from the price. David Yarrow has built an unrivaled reputation for capturing the beauty of the planet’s remote landscapes, cultures and endangered animals. Born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1966, he is now an internationally acclaimed fine art photographer and Europe’s best selling wildlife photographer. "This portrait taken at around 11,000 feet in Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda was as hard earned as any portrait I have taken. It can be a slog up the mountain in the rainy season and even when you encounter a silverback, so many variables that are beyond anyone’s control have to work in the favor of the artist. Firstly, I prefer cloud cover, as a strong sun scattering shafts of intense light through the canopy of the rainforest is not a good bedfellow for portraiture. Secondly, I always prefer some degree of room to work with and 50% of my trips up that hill have not given me that opportunity - the vegetation is just too dense - on the ground and above. I do need some light to play with to help my depth of focus. Thirdly, the silverback has to play ball - and that is not easy - in my experience the earlier the encounter in the day, the greater the opportunity of meeting an alert and compliant gorilla. This is the son of Kwitonda - a famous silverback who passed away recently and it is this son who is now the Governor...
