Elephants are amazing (and amazing-looking) animals; when you look at their faces, their eyes are quite beautiful. Perhaps this is why the elephant eye is such a common book cover image, for elephants real and metaphorical.



Even when the elephant in question has, as the title suggests, vanished, the close-up-on-the-eye meme still persists.
