Joannes Jonstonus (1603–1675), Matthäus Merian - Rhinoceros (Hornnase Rhinocer)

"Rhinoceros. Hornnase Rhinocer" presents a detailed historical zoological study showcasing a rhinoceros standing on a small patch of ground. The highly textured composition captures the armor-like folds of skin, patterned plates, and prominent facial horn heavily influenced by traditional European Renaissance depictions of the exotic creature against a clean background field. Joannes Jonstonus was a celebrated Polish physician, scholar, and natural historian who published encyclopedic scientific treatises detailing the animal kingdom during the seventeenth century, illustrated with plates engraved by Matthäus Merian. Artist or Maker: Joannes Jonstonus, Matthäus Merian Dimensions: Approximately 34 cm x 22 cm. Medium: Engraving.
