Elephants have a significant and diverse symbolism in Thai art. They are a common motif in various art forms and represent different aspects of Thai culture and history. Here are some of the meanings of elephants in Thai art:

Royal power: Elephants are often associated with royal power and authority. In Thai art, you can see elephants in royal productions and processions, symbolising the connection between the kings and these majestic animals.
Religious significance: Elephants are also present in Thai Buddhist art. They may be depicted in Buddhist temples and shrines in the form of statues or paintings, as they have religious significance and appear in various Buddhist stories and legends.
Happiness and prosperity: Elephants are often seen as symbols of happiness and prosperity. In Thai art, there are depictions of elephants carrying gold coins or other symbols of luck, and these are often seen as good luck charms.
Connection to nature: Elephants are also considered a symbol of connection to nature and preservation of the environment in Thai culture. This is reflected in some contemporary artworks that emphasise the importance of nature conservation and the protection of the elephant population.
Arts and crafts: Elephant motifs are often used in Thai arts and crafts, including carvings, embroidery, batik fabrics and ceramics. These artworks can be both traditional and modern in design and are popular with tourists and collectors.
