Description
A table lighter in a shape of an ape with a skull sitting on a pile of books is modelled after “Affe mit Schädel” (An ape with a skull), a sculpture by Hugo Rheinhold. The lighter is inside the monkey’s head. While it is not as detailed as the original piece, the lighter table still captures the spirit of the composition and meaning, presenting the coexistence between literature, biology, and faith in God, the creator.
