Lion god


Several galleries in Philadelphia Museum of Art's Asian wing are devoted to Eastern gods, many of them animals. Ganesha, the dancing elephant, is one of Elliott's favourites, as is the lion in this photo. Elliott likes to run up to it and roar. Here, he has finished greeting his deity friends (Raaah! Moo! Neigh!) and is trying to remember where the Medieval fountain is. Because he fancies a swim.
