The British fantasy writer (1948 - 2015) became famous for his "Discworld novels", among other things. The stories are set on the Discworld, which is flat and supported by 4 elephants standing on the shell of a giant sea turtle. This includes the illustration by Graham Higgins on the right. The motif was derived from the ancient Indian worldview (source: book by Alexander Lauterwasser "The Secret of the Turtle", pages 94 - 97).
