The elephant can be envisioned trekking slowly and majestically across the ceaseless dryness of a plain in search of a watering hole or the shade of tree. He pulls his trunk upward as he passes on by with a tender passivity to his eyes. For years the elephant has been known as a sacred animal in the East. As the largest animal to walk the Earth, the elephant is known as a symbol of strength and power. In Buddhist cultures, white elephants are symbolic of patience and wisdom. The Chinese see elephants as a symbol of energy, strength, and power. Ganesha is a Hindu deity with an elephants head. The Bronze Sculpture was molded using the ancient method of lost wax casting and stained with a brown patina finish for preservation. The elephant is mounted upon a marble base. Bronze Dimensions with Marble Base: Height 11 X Width 13 inches. Weight: 20 LBS.
