National Gallery of Art

The image shows a sculpture of an elephant standing on its hind legs, detailed with patterns on its body and tusk area. The sculpture is displayed on a small pedestal base. The color palette consists of earthy tones of brown and gray, with hints of bronze or metallic shades accentuating the elephant's contours and details. The sculpture is centered in the frame, facing slightly to the right, and the artist's signature "Grace Hazipis" is located towards the lower right corner.
