Le Cheval Rayée (tapestry (wall hanging); Gobelins Tapestry Manufactory; 1687/1730)

Note: French artists at the Gobelins manufactory probably introduced animals such as the Indian rhinoceros and "striped horse" or zebra, which are not native to Brazil, in an attempt to increase the scene's drama and exoticism.
