Where the riddle of the Sphinx figurine endures

The enigmatic guardian of Thebes challenged travellers with a deadly riddle. Those who failed to answer were slain. Only Oedipus solved it: “Who walks on four legs in the morning, two at noon, and three in the evening?” His reply – “a human being” – ended her reign, prompting the Sphinx to cast herself into the abyss.

This finely crafted figurine measures 14 cm in height, 17 cm in width and 13 cm in depth. Part of the Veronese Studio Collection, it is made of high-quality polyresin and depicts the Sphinx as a beautiful woman with wide wings and the body of a lion. Its subtle colouring and elegant bronzed finish give the Sphinx of Thebes a refined, timeless appearance that will delight mythology enthusiasts.

Silent strength unfolding within the Sphinx sculpture

The interplay between feminine grace and leonine power creates a captivating presence. Sculpted wings, calm expression and poised posture echo the Sphinx’s ancient role as guardian, challenger and keeper of hidden wisdom.

The bronzed surface emphasises intricate details, while the muted tones lend the sculpture a classic, dignified aura. For collectors of mythical art, it offers not just décor, but a storytelling piece that brings ancient lore into modern spaces.

If you seek an item symbolising intellect, transformation or the allure of ancient riddles, this Sphinx sculpture is an inspiring choice – mysterious, elegant and quietly powerful.
