Capital with bull protomes

myminifactory

This is a majestic capital, crowning the top of a stately column in architecture, beautifully bedecked with imposing bull busts that exude grandeur. Such adornments on utensils or masterpieces of art, taking the form of a frontal view of an animal's head or a human bust, are known as protomes and frequently appear in ancient artifacts. This capital originates from the revered sanctuary of Eshmun situated in Bustan esh Sheikh, located conveniently near Sidon, Lebanon.
