Description

100% of the Buyer's Premium of all lots sold in this auction will be donated to Community Food Share by Artemis Gallery. $1.00 = 3 meals!

**First Time At Auction**

Ancient Egypt, New Kingdom to Third Intermediate Period, 18th to 25th Dynasty, ca. 1550 to 664 BCE. An intriguing and finely preserved pendant of a sphinx, a mythological human-headed lion known as a fierce and merciless guardian. The enigmatic zoomorph presents seated atop an integral plinth and extends its forelegs down to proudly display its chest. The spherical head has recessed eye sockets above a narrow nose and petite mouth, and behind the head is an integral suspension loop. Size: 0.7" W x 1.1" H (1.8 cm x 2.8 cm)

According to Egyptian scholar Jaromir Malek, "The lion had been from the earliest Egyptian history associated with the concept of guardianship, and so representations of these animals or of sphinxes (hybrid forms which combine the lion's body with a human head) are often found in the vicinity of doorways and entrances to temples and palaces. The Great Sphinx which protects the approach to the pyramid-complex of King Khafra (2518 - 2493 BC) at Giza is the best example." (Malek, Jaromir. "The Cat in Ancient Egypt." University of Pennsylvania Press, Philadelphia, 2006, p. 88)
