Dating back to the 9th century BC, this gypsum alabaster print depicts a winged eagle-headed supernatural figure, believed to be associated with divine powers in the Neo-Assyrian culture. Measuring at an impressive 106.1x60.3 cm, this relief was originally part of the palace of King Ashurnasirpal II at Nimrud, Iraq (ancient Kalhu). The intricate details and craftsmanship displayed on this artwork are truly awe-inspiring. The figure's wings spread wide, symbolizing its ability to transcend earthly boundaries and connect with higher realms. Its piercing eyes exude power and wisdom while its majestic beard adds an air of authority.
