English: A carved Sphinx with the face of Hatshepsut - Located in the Cairo Museum. Note the false royal beard as the symbol of kingship. Actually, the distinctive beard was false for male Pharaohs as well, to the extent that it's a badge of status, rather than any kind of personal grooming preference!
Nederlands: Een gebeeldhouwde Sfinx met het gezicht van Hatsjepsoet in het Cairo Museum. Let ook op de valse koninklijke baard als symbool van het koningschap. Het werd door vele farao's gedragen in plaats van een eigen baard.
