Certainly! Here's a description of the image:

Overall Impression:

The image is a black and white photographic negative. It shows a group of elephants standing on small platforms in what appears to be a circus or performance setting. An animal handler is present, seemingly directing the elephants.

Detailed Description:

  • Elephants: There are several elephants, each standing on a small, square platform. Their trunks are in various positions, some raised and some lowered. The elephants are the central focus of the image.

  • Animal Handler: A figure, presumably an animal handler or trainer, stands to the left of the group of elephants. They are holding what looks like a long stick or rod, perhaps used for guiding the animals.

  • Setting: In the background, there's a faint suggestion of an audience or spectators, seated or standing behind a barrier. The ground appears to be a grassy or flat surface.

  • Technical Aspects: As it is a photographic negative, all the tones are reversed. The elephants appear as a bright, almost luminescent white, while the background is dark. There are markings and text along the edges of the negative, including "EASTMAN - SAFETY - KODAK" and what appears to be a number "16118".
