The members of an elephant clan can be imagined on the banks of a watering hole in the hot plains of Africa. Reaching the final destination after an epic migration they all trumpet their trunks into the air in reverie. 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 elephant's head. The handmade bronze sculpture was captured using the ancient method of lost-wax casting and stained with a brown patina finish for preservation and is signed Barye.
