The lamassu in the Louvre Museum are monumental Neo Assyrian guardian figures from around 900–700 BC, displayed in the Department of Near Eastern Antiquities. Carved with human heads, winged bodies, and the strength of bulls or lions, they once stood at palace gateways to ward off evil and project royal power. Their calm faces, detailed beards, muscular bodies, and patterned wings embody divine protection, strength, vigilance, and the authority of the Assyrian king. #louvre #ancientart #ancienta
