Details

By Riyas, three sleek black elephants wear grey silks depicting an ancient Mughal king riding his own pachyderms. The elephant is considered a devotee of Lord Shiva and is an important icon in Hindu mythology. From ancient times until the 18th century, elephants were an integral part of land warfare and military strategy in India. Elephants are also revered for their acute memory and physical strength, and the mighty beasts symbolize auspiciousness, abundance, and well-being.
