This poster advertising Air Ceylon takes us back in time, reminding us of the grandeur these majestic creatures possess. Just like Babar, king of the elephants, and Celeste playing tennis at Celesteville, their gracefulness is truly awe-inspiring.

Witness their sheer size and strength as they gracefully traverse this magnificent landscape. Intriguingly adorable is a baby elephant from Kenya; its innocence and playfulness remind us that even these colossal beings were once small and vulnerable. These gentle giants have also played significant roles throughout history. Known as defenders of the empire, British Army, Navy, and Airforce have embraced their mightiness symbolically. The Blind Men and the Elephant tale comes alive through Katsushika Hokusai's Japanese woodblock print. It teaches us about perspective - how each person perceives only a part but not the whole picture when encountering something new. Hannibal crossing the Alps showcases both bravery and resourcefulness attributed to elephants throughout ancient times. Their resilience has left an indelible mark on history. From Anchor Line posters to English Electric Canberra aeroplanes adorned with elephant motifs - these magnificent creatures have inspired artistry across various mediums for centuries.
