"Clara in Neurenberg" is a silver medal created in 1748 by German artist Peter Paul Werner. The medal depicts a rhinoceros, known as Clara, that was brought to Europe by the Dutch East India Company and exhibited in various cities. The detailed depiction of the rhinoceros's powerful physique and armored hide reflects the fascination and curiosity surrounding this exotic creature in 18th-century Europe. The medal's small size and inscription, "Nurnberg," suggests it was likely a souvenir for those who witnessed the rhinoceros's exhibition in Nuremberg.
