The Majestic Griffin

The Griffin, part lion part eagle all powerful creature in the war against evil.

Majestic, intelligent and a symbol of good, the Griffin has been a part of the myths of Ancient Egypt, Middle East and Europe for over 3000 years.

By the Middle Ages, the Griffin had become a favorite symbol of the heraldry of the nobility, and both the Christian and Islamic religions for its symbolism as sign of virtue as a guardian against evil.

 This Griffin is a plastic piece from Monolith, Mystic Battles that I painted for Tom in June.
