An oil on canvas study of the African Big Five, featuring a leopard, lion, African elephant, Cape buffalo, and rhinoceros arranged in a composite portrait. The work is executed in a realistic style, with detailed attention given to the textures of the fur, hide, and horns of each animal. The subjects are set against a soft, atmospheric background of blended green and blue colours. The painting is signed in a reddish-brown pigment Gerry Jones to the lower right and is dated 97. The piece is housed in a contemporary, flat-profile black wooden frame.
