In Egyptian legend, the Sphinx appeared to a young prince in a dream. It promised to make him king if he cleared away the sand covering its body. While the king Chephren was building his pyramids, a laborer noticed that the limestone lump near by looked like a lion. Since the king was often represented by a lion, they decided to make a statue with the head of Chephren and the body of a lion. Later variations on the sphinx included leaving the lion's ears and mane and only humanizing the face, and the criosphinx, with the head of a ram. The criosphinx statue has been created in resin, finished by hand, detailed with rich gold tones and measures 9 1/4" long.
