Answer to questions 4 and 7 of the reading about the Rhinoceros


4)
I prefer Hans Burgkmair depiction of the rhino. It's shown chained and it is expressing deep sadness thru it's eyes, which was probably closer to how the animal felt.





7)
My favorite depiction is actually Hans Burgkmair's. Even thought there are many others who depict a more exaggerated or ornamented armor, I feel Burgkmair's better depicts the actual feeling of the animal. But at the time I'm sure that people were way more interested in how the rhinoceros looked and a lot less in how it felt.
