This piece of carved ivory is decorated with coloured stones and gold. It was found at Nimrud and was originally part of a piece of furniture. This sculpture decorated a wall in the palace of Sennacherib's grandson, Ashurbanipal. It probably shows the front of Sennacherib's palace with columns resting on the backs of lions. This is a wall relief from Sennacherib's palace showing an Ugallu. This is a scene from Sennacherib's palace showing a city under attack by the Assyrian army. This relief from Nineveh shows King Ashurbanipal, the grandson of Sennacherib, relaxing with his queen in the royal gardens. |
