The elephant is "an inexhaustible theme", says the artist. Neiman collectors know this to be true, as some of the artist's most beloved prints are Elephant Charge, Elephant Stampede, Elephant Family and Elephant Nocturne. Elephants were also featured in Neiman's record of his artistic adventures in Africa, the 1997 book LeRoy Neiman On Safari, and were depicted as performers in his serigraph Circus.
"There is nothing more awesome than an elephant in the wild," says Neiman. "In freedom elephants have a great authority that you don't see in the circus or the zoo. The lion is called the King of Beasts, but it is the elephant that is completely fearless and unstoppable. If aroused in fear or anger, they are unbelievably terrifying and destructive. But ordinarily they are just peaceful grazers of grass - truly "the gentle giants."
The elephant triptych is utterly unique. Three aspects of the elephant are presented against a forest of deep blue and green. On the left and right panels, the multicolored elephant charges through the forest, trampling everything in its path, head up, ears flapping, brandishing his dangerous tusks. In the center is a head study of the ponderous pachyderm - a real eye-to-eye view that in nature would be too close for comfort. The greatest land animal is given a powerful and impressive interpretation in the artist's well-balanced creation.
A very special, one-of-a-kind serigraph, Elephant Triptych, will be an extraordinary addition to all Neiman collections.
