Animal-Headed Figure Pendant

Cleveland Museum of Art

Gold pendant in the shape of an animal-headed figure. The figure has a human-like body with a head resembling an animal, possibly a monkey or a bird, with a long snout and a distinctive nose. Two gold wings protrude from the figure's back. The figure stands on two legs with four toes on each foot. The head is adorned with two large, rounded elements, possibly representing ears or a headdress. The figure's arms are bent at the elbows, with hands covering the face. The pendant appears to be made of gold and features intricate details, including patterned designs on the body and a belt around the waist. The background of the image is gray. The pendant is the work of an unknown artist titled "Animal-Headed Figure Pendant".
