Use of Camel in Art[edit]

I think there ought to be a section discussing the camel's representation in art, at least briefly. Here is an example:

The camel, which transported luxury goods, became a symbol for wealth and camel statues would adorn the graves of the rich during the Han period of Ancient China. ^[1] The practice peaked in the Tang period before fading away. The Mantle of Roger II, produced in 1133/1134, shows mirrored image of a lion dominating on the back of a camel. The piece is thought to represent the Christian rule over Sicily and North Africa, and the camels are bridled, suggesting domestication. ^[2] In Renaissance art, the camel represents the exotic and biblical.
