Atraídos por el color y el adorno, el hombre siempre ha querido transformar su cuerpo y rostro, desde la prehistoria hasta la actualidad. Pinturas, tatuajes, escarificaciones y maquillaje le da una "segunda piel" y traducen la expresión de la individualidad, la cultura y el sentido de lo sagrado. La pintura corporal nos lleva en un viaje ininterrumpido por el mundo y por un momento.

The history of the importance elephants in Asian history, elephants swimming (do you know they swim better & faster than they walk), giving birth (they all help to remove the birth sac), a female dying (they stayed with her & then waited in silence).....

The mass murder of elephants for ivory, trophies, & to stop the destruction of vegetation.
Elephants in religion & architecture... The gate to the Berlin Zoological gardens is beautiful.
An amazing book, that nearly killed me lifting it from the bottom shelf!… (mehr)
