Description
As a study of the natural habit, this savannah scene highlights the Indian Rhinoceros (instead of the double-horned African Rhinoceros). To see the intricacy of steel plate engravings and witness the artistry of an engraving, click on the image itself and use the magnifying glass to look at the representation of shading and a variety of types of landscape scenery -- including reflection of the animals in the water's surface.
