Vance -- my favorite version of the Noah story is the one drawn by Peter Spiers. He uses the Biblical text (I believe the KJV) and does these lovely detailed drawings to go along with it.
Well, there's this one series of pictures where all these animals are standing outside the ark, while the water gets higher and higher and higher...I remember an entire herd of elephants, including a baby elephant standing with its mother's trunk around it, all of the animals looking sort of resignedly at the ark, which has its doors and windows shut.
Spiers added no commentary to the text, but then he didn't have to.
