About this work

In this print, a small figure lies on an elephant in the bottom left corner of a dark landscape. The landscape is turbulent, which makes the figure's presence stand out. I'm not sure what the story behind this image is, but it seems like the artist is trying to convey a sense of danger or uncertainty. To learn more about this kind of dramatic lighting, look into the technique: chiaroscuro.
