"...that it captures the absolute essence of the creature in as concise an image as possible"
I'm not convinced.

- olavk 18y agoSo you think the image could be even simpler and still convey the image of a bull? I would guess that he made a plate XII where he simplified further by removing the balls or horns, and then realized that it was no longer the image of a bull.
- tyn 18y agoIt doesn't capture the essence of the creature in the sense that it lacks certain elements that one can assosciate with it, e.g. power (it looks very timid to me). Probably I misinterpreted the world "image", I did't take it literally as you suggest.
