Roger Shepard (2019) with poster showing his elephant illusion.
- ... that Roger Shepard created an elephant named "L'egs-istential Quandary"? Source: The Guardian: "With his usual love of a quick joke, Shepard entitled the illusion L'egs-istential Quandary"[1]
- ALT1:... that the Shepard elephant (How many legs?) inspired an Indian elephant with six legs? OpticalSpy: "it is a special six legged Indian elephant designed by us. We wondered what a real elephant would look like if it was similar to the old favourite optical illusion shown on the left here. So just for a bit of fun we made one." [2]
