"Sphinx" is a notable painting by the German Symbolist artist Franz von Stuck, created in 1895. This work is emblematic of Stuck's fascination with mythological and mystical subjects, which he often depicted with a sensual and dark aesthetic. The painting features the enigmatic figure of a sphinx, a mythological creature with the body of a lion and the head of a human, which has been a symbol of mystery and wisdom in various ancient cultures.

In "Sphinx," von Stuck presents the creature with a sense of foreboding and allure, capturing the duality of its nature as both a guardian and a menace. The sphinx is often associated with riddles and the unattainable, and in this painting, it appears to be both inviting and threatening, reflecting the Symbolist movement's preoccupation with the hidden aspects of the human psyche and the unknown.

The composition of the painting, with its use of chiaroscuro and a limited color palette, emphasizes the dramatic and enigmatic quality of the subject. Von Stuck's technique, characterized by his use of thick brushstrokes and a focus on the interplay of light and shadow, lends the work a tactile and intense atmosphere.

"Sphinx" is considered an important work in von Stuck's oeuvre and is representative of the Symbolist movement at the turn of the 20th century. The painting is a testament to the artist's skill in conveying complex themes through powerful imagery and is a significant piece within the broader context of European art history. It continues to be studied and admired for its evocative portrayal of myth and its exploration of the darker aspects of human nature and the supernatural.
