About this work

A colour illustration titled "They came upon a great stone sphinx" by William Heath Robinson, dated 1925. A monumental stone sphinx head with a jeweled headdress and beaded garland rises on the right, while a crowd of small children sleeps on a broad stone ledge under a patchwork quilt. A child in blue reaches up toward a dripping spout or stream of water against a pale blue night sky.
