Handcrafted from granite, each piece is a unique work of art, marked by variations in color and veining. Measuring W. 23 in, D. 7 in, and H. 11 in, this colossal sphinx melds the strength of a lion with the idealized beauty of Pharaoh Hatshepsut. It once graced her mortuary temple at Deir el-Bahri, a testament to her powerful reign. This piece, echoing the great sphinx of Giza, stands as a symbol of enduring Egyptian artistry and history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHISTORIC PROVENANCE\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Object Sphinx of Hatshepsut is a reproduction of a colossal Egyptian sphinx (ca. 1479–1458 B.C.) at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Depicting the female pharaoh Hatshepsut with the body of a lion and a human head wearing a headcloth and false beard, the imposing granite statue, which displays powerful lion-like musculature, was one of at least six granite sphinxes that stood in Hatshepsut's mortuary temple at Deir el-Bahri. This reproduction has been crafted in granite in homage to the original.\u003cspan class=\"dimension-value\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Eichholtz","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45454785609901,"sku":"TM0083","price":4495.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0663\/4402\/6285\/files\/T_M_TM0083_0_1_1.jpg?v=1773711725","url":"https:\/\/www.eichholtzmh.com\/products\/egyptian-sculpture-sphinx-of-hatshepsut","provider":"Eichholtz Manhattan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
