Into the Wild — Queen of the Mara and Family | The Story
A matriarch, her daughter, and her granddaughter, together on the path she forged.
The Queen of the Mara has since passed of natural causes. This is how she will be remembered.
This black-and-white fine art print captures the Queen of the Mara in motion—side-on, mid-stride, her powerful trunk grazing the earth as she reaches for grass. Her tusks, long and elegant, curve forward in sweeping arcs—remarkable for a female and carried with the effortless dignity of a monarch.
In the open plains behind her stands her legacy: two adult daughters and a young calf, calmly gathered in her wake. It is a rare and intimate tableau—three generations bound by instinct, memory, and the silent wisdom of a matriarch.
Presented in a panoramic format, "Queen of the Mara and Family" spans nearly 90 inches in width. This expansive composition invites the viewer into the heart of the landscape—open, uncluttered, and timeless.
This is not merely a wildlife portrait—it is a study in presence, lineage, and the enduring strength of family in the wild.

Collector Stories
Reflections from collectors who have welcomed Peter Delaney's artwork into their homes around the world.
After some delay, I finally had 'Bonds of Love' framed and placed on my bedroom wall, a gift from my husband for our 50th wedding anniversary. He passed away not long after, and two years on, this photograph continues to comfort me. It is the first thing I see every morning, and it gladdens my heart.
This is not a photograph hanging on a wall. It is a window into something vast and unhurried.
To have one of Peter Delaney's images in your home is your connection to a world few of us will ever experience, and a connection to nature and the earth that is truly rare.
Queen of the Mara has occupied a central place in our living room since 2020. It helped us feel connected to the world at a time when we... weren't.
Each print carries its own story, creating a lasting connection between the collector and Africa's wild places.
