AT THE WATERHOLE - African Elephants by  Rosetta
  AT THE WATERHOLE  (1999)
Subject: African Elephants
Dimensions (inches): 14.5 x 24 x 20
Medium: Bronze
Description: Edition of 24

Some may think of elephants as just big round shapes on cylindrical legs, but I find fascinating nuances of line and form in their huge and expressive bodies. This, and their great heads - the bony structure so evident under the wrinkles of skin, the undulating shapes of their colossal ears, and those eyes, so deep, so sad, so wise -inspired me to do this sculpture. Since Elephants live within such strong social bonds, the females staying in family groups all their lives, I put two together in this statement of closeness and interdependence, as one stands watch while the other drinks at the waterhole.
