A Winged Lion is usually St Mark, but I've no idea about double wings! Such an attractive object!

You are a great observer!! Usually the winged lions are like wings of bird ( I know many examples because i live near Venice )
An interesting find & I like the flattened look of the postwork...
A great shot but really pleased they don't fly !!
great shot
Although not an exact representation, this is close to being a replica of the legendary Griffin of mythology. Griffin: a mythical creature with the head and wings of an eagle and the body of a lion, typically depicted with pointed ears and with the eagle's legs taking the place of the forelegs. Look like butterfly wings to me and I don't see eagle's legs. In any case, a cool POV employed to capture this golden sculpture, Jean.
This is a very interesting and cool sculpture! Thanks for sharing
Unusual and very beautiful!
