The most famous sphinx in Livorno is still this one, which has a twin sister just in front of her.
You can see two more on this front door in Via Coccoluto Ferrigni,
with another couple just next door.

These are beautiful!
I wonder what the electrical wiring is for.
I like them. Full-bosomed sphinxes are a delight.
The craftmanship is stunning.
They really are beautiful.
Both are beautiful, but I prefer the first one...
These creatures look more scary when they are not lying down, like in your photos.
Very interesting. I probably wouldn't notice details like this if I was just walking past. :)
Nice woodwork.
Wonderfull, greeting from Belgium
