Bessie Stough Callender's work was greatly influenced by the closed geometric forms of ancient Egyptian art. In Baboon, Callender carved different textures into the limestone to give the form depth and visual interest. The baboon's face is smooth and his features arem arked with sleek likes and cutouts. The intensity of the sculpture is centered in the baboon's imposing brow, where the contoured limestone shows fierce, intelligent eyes. "[The baboon] was the king of his tribe and no other male dread come within reach of him as he sat triumphant surrounded by his harem." Harold Callender, Fun Tomorrow: The Story of an Artist and a Way of Life, 1953".   Smithsonian American Art Museum, Given as a memorial to the artist by her husband, Harold Callender.
