In the Great court of the British Museum Mr Monkey studied Rock Number 59, a stainless steel rock made by Zhan Wang and inspired by a real rock from last years China Landscape garden. Mr Monkey listened to a concert of Iranian music, put on as part of the Shah 'Abbas - the remaking of Iran exhibition, then left the Museum. He was a monkey with a train to catch.
You can read about Shah 'Abbas at the British Museum website.
