The mythological Chimera

This Greek mythology monster artwork features the mythical deity creature of ancient Greece Chimera.

According to Greek mythology,[1] the Chimera, Chimaera, or Chimæra (/kaɪˈmɪərə, kɪ-/ ky-MEER-ə, kih-; Ancient Greek: Xίμαιρα, romanized: Chímaira, lit. 'she-goat')was a monstrous fire-breathing hybrid creature from Lycia, Asia Minor, composed of different animal parts. It is usually depicted as a lion, with the head of a goat protruding from its back, occasionally depicted with dragon's wings, and a tail that might end with a snake's head. It was an offspring of Typhon and Echidna and a sibling of monsters like Cerberus and the Lernaean Hydra

Oedipus deciphered the enigma of the Sphinx of Thebes and escaped death! It was not devoured by the winged monster that furiously threw itself over a precipice. When human beings are born, they crawl, then they stand up and walk on their two legs, and in old age they use a cane to get around. So during its lifetime it uses 4, 2 and finally 3 "legs".

2 sphinxes stare at each other, enigmatic ! I designed this after an archaic Greek shield straps dedicated in the Temple of Zeus at Olympia.
