EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from Cassell's Universal History, published in 1888, showcases the mystical figure of a Lama, Lamma or Lamassu - a deity revered by the Sumerians and Assyrians. With a human head, the body of either a bull or lion, and majestic bird wings extending from its back, this divine being exudes power and grace.
The intricate details captured in this print transport us back to ancient civilizations where such mythical creatures were worshipped as symbols of strength and protection. The fusion of human, animal, and avian features in the Lama embodies a harmonious blend of earthly and heavenly realms.
As we gaze upon this mesmerizing depiction, we are reminded of the rich cultural heritage left behind by our ancestors. The craftsmanship involved in creating such elaborate representations speaks to the reverence with which these deities were held in ancient times.
