Self-portrait “Sphinx” inkwell sculpted by legendary actress Sarah Bernhardt, circa 1880. The inkwell portion is topped with a horned skull, and she has comedy-tragedy-mask shoulder epaulettes in tribute to her passion for theater, the body of a transformative griffin with scaled tail, fierce claws, and dramatic batwings ready to take flight—all topped off with a high ruffled collar and impeccably tied ribbon bow around her neck.
