EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the majestic presence of Jung Pershad, Maharaja Sir Jang Bahadur's largest fighting elephant in 1876. The image showcases the sheer scale and power of this magnificent creature, with its hobbled legs emphasizing its captured state.

The intensity between these two giants is palpable, their trunks raised high in defiance as they prepare to clash against each other. The photograph not only highlights the grandeur of this Asian elephant but also provides a glimpse into Nepal's rich history.
