The present lot was presented to David Rockefeller on the occasion of his 80th birthday. The form relates to a Mexican onyx vessel of the 10th-13th centuries, at the Metropolitan Museum of Art (1979.206.1156). The onyx vessel similarly depicts a monkey holding his tail above his head. It was gifted to the museum in 1979 by Nelson Rockefeller, part of the Michael C. Rockefeller Memorial Collection.
