Griffin symbolism in mythology The griffin is a mythical creature combining the body of a lion with the head and wings of an eagle. It represents power, protection, and vigilance-the lion's strength paired with the eagle's keen vision.

With thick black outlines and flat, saturated colors, traditional tattoos are built to last. The straightforward approach prioritizes readability and impact, making these designs recognizable from a distance.

The ribcage offers a private placement that only shows when the wearer chooses. Its curved surface adds dimension to designs, though the area is known for being one of the more sensitive spots to tattoo.
