Can we change the picture on the front page to something else,
perhaps our standard elephant? The current picture is not
offensive or anything, but I'm honestly not sure what it is
supposed to convey.

That is, indeed, me, taking a nap outside the Medici's chapel :)

Perhaps a caption is in order ;)

For the record, I knew *what* the picture was of, I just didn't
know the why. And still don't. I'd simply like to propose replacing it
with something less confusing for the average viewer, like our standard logo.

Because the image that is portrayed on the project's main page is
an advocacy issue. I'd raise the same question if we put such a pic
on the front page of our brochure.

Agreed.  It's not the image we should be portraying.

It's one thing to have the picture in a series of PGDay images.  It's
quite another to have it as the first image on the website.
