Art style: Cinematic Realistic.
A close-up of the elephant's eye peering through the gaps in the heavy rope net. A single tear rolls down his wrinkled skin. The lighting is focused on the eye, showing fear and regret. The mood is sorrowful and desperate. The color palette is dark and somber, with the grey of the skin and the brown of the ropes.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image entirely in "Cinematic Realistic" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Cinematic Realistic". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Cinematic Realistic" idiom, not in any other medium.
