Description
Alternate view of the amulet from the H.P. Lovecraft story "The Hound". Commissioned for the one man production included in "Things at the Doorstep" that showed in Manhattan in March of 2011.
"In the coffin lay an amulet of curious and exotic design, which had apparently been worn around the sleeper's neck. It was the oddly conventionalised figure of a crouching winged hound, or sphinx with a semi-canine face, and was exquisitely carved in antique Oriental fashion from a small piece of green jade. The expression of its features was repellent in the extreme, savoring at once of death, bestiality and malevolence. Around the base was an inscription in characters which neither St John nor I could identify; and on the bottom, like a maker's seal, was graven a grotesque and formidable skull."
2.5'' H x .8'' W x 2'' L
Super Sculpey III and acrylic mediums
