The winged genie is shown holding a conical fruit which has presumably been dipped into a bucket of pollen held in preparation for fertilizing the Tree of Life, an important symbol in Assyrian religious belief.

I took these photos at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. The reliefs are from interior walls of the palace of Ashurnasirpal II who reigned from 883 to 859 BC. He was the first Assyrian king to use carved reliefs on the interior walls of a palace at the site of Kalhu (now called Nimrud).

Relief of an eagle-headed demon engaged in a ritual to expel sickness and evil spirits.

Like Greek and Roman statues these reliefs were originally painted. These reliefs had small traces of black, white, red and blue paint when they were first rediscovered in the 1830’s.

Lots of people are gawking at it; even on Rodeo Drive it caused quite a stir.

Blue Balloon Dog by Jeff Koons at LACMA

I actually like this piece at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). But if you find it too cute, the museum has tons of great fine art. Definitely worth a visit if you are in LA and like fine art.
