When I was walking along Cuauhtémoc Avenue, I passed through Jardín Ramón López Velarde, a large park in the Roma neighborhood. A whimsical statue that I had never noticed before drew my attention, and I walked over to it.
The sculpture is called "The Elephant of Abundance", a symbol of fortune and good luck in several Asian cultures. It was done by Mexican muralist and sculptor Fernando Andriacci, and it is made of steel and painted with automotive lacquer. It is a recent addition to the park, unveiled during a renovation of the green space in 2023.
