Description: |
Rhino (without text) among manuscripts in the Vatican, Vat.lat.2847_0390_fa_0190r. See Walter 1994, fig. 5. This is likely the precursor of the illustration in Penni, G.G., 1515. Forma & natura et costumi de lo rinocerothe stato condutto im Portogallo dal Capitanio de larmata del Re & altre belle cose condutte dalle insule nouamente trouate. Impresso in Roma: in casa de mastro Stephano Guilireti a di tredici de luio, 1515. Roma, 13 July 1515, pp. 1-4. - This should be a drawing sent from Lisbon illustrating the Lisbon rhino which was later sent to Rome. It is early as Penni's booklet was published as early as 13 July 1515. |
