The Louvre, British Museum, Cambridge Fitzwilliam Museum, the Brooklyn and
Metropolitan Museum in New York, museums in Turin, Leyde, Berlin and
Leipzig, the Brussels Royal Art and History Museums have all collaborated
strongly in this project, by lending their best pieces on this highly
diverse theme.
The exhibition brings together more than 200 works, traces the evolution in
the sphinx's representation and reveals the role held by the sphinx in
Ancient Egypt: sculptures in the round, steles, amulets, jewellery, ceramics and so
on.
