EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the Elephant Parade DP094957, an open-air art exhibition held at the Royal Hospital in Chelsea, London. The exhibition showcased a stunning collection of decorated elephant statues, each one contributed by famous and upcoming artists. These magnificent creations were not only visually striking but also served a noble purpose – to promote the conservation of Asian elephants. Photographed in June 2010 by Derek Kendall, this image transports us back to a time when public awareness about the life-threatening situation faced by Asian elephants was crucial. Over the past century, their population had drastically declined from 250,000 to a mere 25,000 individuals. The Elephant Parade became a powerful platform for renowned artists to lend their talent and creativity towards this urgent cause. Each statue represented hope for these majestic creatures as they stood tall amidst London's vibrant streetscape. As we admire this photograph today, it serves as a reminder that art has the power to transcend boundaries and ignite change. Through their artistic contributions, these talented individuals aimed to raise funds and awareness for Asian elephant conservation efforts. Let us cherish this snapshot of unity between art and nature – an enduring testament to humanity's commitment towards preserving our planet's most precious species.
