Tanım

Late in EC. Wall fragment from a small alabastron. A winged sphinx facing to left, preserved from mid-wing and chest through the lower leg. Portions of the wing, chest, front leg, back paw, and haunch are preserved. Added red on alternate feathers and on the wing bar. There is an incised rosette beneath the belly of the sphinx. The incision is quick and somewhat careless. Glaze: black, glossy, and badly worn. Clay: fairly fine, with obvious air bubbles in the wall. Pale yellow-buff. Munsell no. between 10 YR 8/4 and 7/4 (very pale brown).

This sphinx was probably one of a pair of confronted sphinxes. The body is more compact than those of most MC and LC sphinxes.
