The British Museum - Nineveh Sculptures: Mask of Rabshakah, the King's Cupbearer, 1857. Detail of a bas-relief from the South West Palace, the ancient Assyrian city of Nineveh, (in modern Iraq)....the face from a round full-length portrait of one of the beardless attendants of Senacherib - very probably Rabshakah, the chief cupbearer of that Monarch whom he sent to Hezekiah'. Engraving, probably of an object described thus by the British Musuem: Stone sculpture; face of sphinx that probably belonged to the head of a colossal sphinx put together from different materials such as wood and bronze; regarded as having magical powers'.
