“Like so many before me, I was drawn to the world of Deyrolle, a place that celebrates the mysterious, the beautiful, and the often overlooked wonders of nature. It’s an endless source of inspiration, and I’m infinitely grateful to have had the chance to collaborate with them. It’s an honor—and a little surreal—to be a part of their story, especially with a creature so close to my heart: the elephant.” - Johnny Depp
Johnny Depp joins the tradition of artists inspired by 19th-century educational boards. This collaboration honors a powerful symbol: The Elephant . Deyrolle gives a special place to this mythical animal, which in the institution's animal bestiary recalls many exceptional works of their time and preserves important anecdotes. For Johnny Depp, the Elephant embodies strength and mystery.
“Elephants feature heavily in my work. They are remarkable creatures, intelligent and strange, with the kindest eyes that seem to contain something deeper, something mysterious. Although elephants are enormous creatures, their beauty is delicate.” - Johnny Depp
