EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from ancient Mesopotamia - a plaque depicting a ram-headed Sphinx. Created by the Assyrian School during the 9th-8th century BC, this ivory masterpiece is now housed in the Iraq Museum, Baghdad. The intricate craftsmanship of this piece is truly awe-inspiring. The supernatural creature combines elements of both a lion and a winged mythical being, embodying the rich mythological traditions of the region. Its distinctive ram's head adds an intriguing twist to its appearance, symbolizing strength and power. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an era when civilizations flourished in what is now known as Western Asia. This artwork serves as a testament to the advanced artistic skills and cultural sophistication of these ancient peoples. The significance of such artifacts lies not only in their aesthetic beauty but also in their ability to provide us with glimpses into past civilizations and their beliefs. This plaque represents more than just an exquisite work of art; it carries with it centuries worth of history and cultural heritage. Through photography, we have been granted access to this extraordinary relic that would otherwise be confined within museum walls.
