"Baboon and Young" by Pablo Picasso 1951

Bronze sculpture is a great example of a visual metaphor.  Picasso took the image of a small car and merged it with the face of a baboon.  He enlarged the back wheels to resemble ears the front wheels broad to form a "grin" and cheekbones.  The eyes are formed from the two figures sitting in the front seat of the car.  The mother seems to smile as her infant clings to her.  Brilliant piece that provokes much thought.
