Originally derived from Egyptian mythology, Sphinx statues are described as winged monsters, usually male. There were three sphinxes in the legends of the time – the Androsphinx with the body of a sphinx, the Criosphinx with the body of a sheep and the body of a sheep, and the Hieracosphinx with the body of a griffin. Assyrians and Persians describe the Sphinx as a winged bull with a human face, beard and crown. In Greek mythology, Sphinx statues have become a female evil, representing the punishment of the gods. Among the decorative art Sphinx statues in Europe, the Sphinx received a great deal of attention with the Renaissance. Subsequently, the sphinx image similar to Egypt was introduced into various other cultures, although the image was different due to different descriptions and developed differently in the cultural tradition of Sphinx statues.
In Greek mythology, Sphinx statues is a sphinx, winged banshee, one of the daughters of the giant Typhon and the basilisk Echidna. Although the expressions of the Sphinx patterns of ancient Egypt and ancient Greece in various periods are different, they are all a combination of human beings, lions, oxen, and eagles. In Greek mythology, the sphinx became a female evil, representing the punishment of the gods. The Greeks imagined Sphinx statues as monsters that would strangle people to death. The Mystery of the Sphinx is expressed at a deeper level as “fear and temptation”, that is, “real life”. After years of weathering, the Sphinx statues were excavated from the sand again by posterity. Sphinx statues stare straight ahead, their expressions solemn and majestic.
