For #WorldElephantDay 🐘:

Drawing (Zoomorphic Calligraphy, Elephant)

North India or Pakistan, possibly Lahore, late 19th c.

Black ink on paper

“Ornamental calligraphy in the form of a running elephant, saddled with a double-seated high saddle. The whole embodies the name and titles of a Nawab of Jasra.”

V&A IM.19-1916

“See letter of Hendley to Caspar Purdon Clarke, December 31 1915 on NFMA/1/H1596, Hendley Family, where he notes that these were from 'the bazaar' and are the originals of those published by him and Chaubey Bisvesvar Nath of Jaipur in the Journal of Indian Art. Several of the calligraphic birds and animals reproduced in the Journal are signed and give their place of origin as Lahore, or the Lahore bazaar.”
