Lion

Cleveland Museum of Art

Gray stone sculpture of a mythical lion-like creature. The creature has a large head with a frown and curled mustache-like facial hair on either side of its mouth. Ears are on either side of its head and resemble a leaf. It has a curled mane on its back and around its neck. The front two legs are visible and the back left leg is visible. The sculpture sits on a square base. The background fades from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom.
