EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century print captures the enchanting beauty and mystique of the Sphinx statue located in the gardens of Belvedere Palace in Vienna, Austria. The Baroque masterpiece, designed by Dominique Girard, stands as a testament to the rich history and artistic complexity of Europe during this era. The Sphinx, a mythological creature with the body of a lion and the head of a woman, has long been a symbol of enigma and riddles in ancient mythology. The statue, sculpted by Johann Lukas Hildebrandt and Eugene Savoy, is a stunning example of the intricate detail and fantastic imagination that characterized the art of the time. The print offers a glimpse into the grandeur of the Belvedere Palace, which served as a residence for the ruling Prince and later became a renowned museum. The serene summer scene, with the Sphinx standing proudly amidst the lush greenery, invites the viewer to ponder the mysteries of the past and the enduring allure of mythology.
