Description

A large stone sculpture of a winged creature with a human head and a lion-like body rests on a rectangular stone base set on a dark pedestal. Its surface is weathered, and the ridged wing rises behind the head. Behind it, dark shelves hold rows of small standing figures and heads on white bases, and a printed card hangs on the wall.
