Theriomorphic deities

The revelation of the restored version of the Mystic Lamb from the Ghent Altarpiece got me thinking about theriomorphic deities.

The scary goggly eyes of the restored version attracted quite a lot of comment and even a scary meme of the Lamb winking.

Before you go and have a look at the pictures, I have to warn you that what has been seen cannot be unseen.

Before and after. Restoration of the lamb from the 15th century Ghent altarpiece. I can tell you this.. It wasn't me..
