Statue of Sphynx from Chiusi.
About This Item
ETRUSCAN Anonymous: The scuplture style of the head of this sphynx represents the beginnings of the influence of Greek Daedalic art on Etruscan sculpture. A Greek Daedalic influence is identified in the strong outline of the face and the low forehead as well as the curve of small curls that ornament the head.
