QUESTION 351 : Sound, OK, Horn!

Right ho!
End of our first theme week!
Back to regular questions till Monday! :)
Btw, You can still go for the theme ( questions 350 a to f)


This one deals with a slightly different issue!

We see in this picture, a chappy who has a lot to do with a mango! :D (X)
When X came to India, he exchanged gifts with an Indian king. The gift he received from India was an animal.
He sent the animal back to Portugal to King Manuel I. Manuel sent it to the Pope. Sadly, it perished in a shipwreck off the coast of Italy.

Somebody described this never-seen-before animal to a certain German artist (Y). (Y) used the description given to him and produced one of his most famous works (Z, no picture here :P ) without even having seen the animal!

(X)


(Y)


Id X, Y and Z
