This gallery contains images that decorated the palaces and temples of the Assyrian capital cities Nimrud and Khorsabad. In the palaces, stone panels lined the walls of the rooms and courtyards, colossal human-headed winged bulls stood in the major doorways, and stone slabs served as thresholds and fixtures. The subjects of the wall slabs include protective figures, processions of tribute, and scenes of battle and hunting.
