L Elephante Giraffe

One of the recurring motifs in Dalí's works are elephants. We also find this symbol in the painting L' Elephante Giraffe. Dalí found inspiration for this motif in Lorenzo Bernini's sculpture Giovanna, which depicts an elephant carrying one of the Egyptian obelisks. Dalí adds extremely long and skinny legs to the elephants, which creates the impression of ghosts.

Prevailing color of this fine art print is blue and its shape is portrait.
