Drawing in author's collection: 'Rhinoceros charging elephants', 18 ? x 8 inches; Rajput (Jaipur), 19th century. [rhino with single horn, no saddle] This work, probably late 19th century, though quite realistic, is very amusing; the unconcerned and surly rhino does not bestow a second glance upon the elephant he has knocked over, and disdains even the one that is preparing to meet his charge.
