Summary

Description
English: The Shrike in front of some of the Time Tombs

Warning: this image does not render properly on this page. It is the original vector file, that must be opened with inkscape. If you want to do derived work, use this file, if you want to display it, use File:Shrike time tombs.png.

The Shrike is figured in front of some of the time tombs, from the foreground to the background are drawn: theThree Cave Tombs, the Crystal Monolith (tomb of Fedman Kassad, the largest tomb), the Obelisk, the Jade Tomb, the Sphinx (between the arm and the belt of the Shrike). The Shrike Palace is not figured (it should be about a kilometer behind the observer).

The tree of thorns is drawn in the background, with some people agonizing on it.

From Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Shrike&oldid=351026042):

The Shrike is a character from Dan Simmons' Hyperion universe.

The Shrike stands roughly three meters in height and is described as being composed of razorwire, thorns, blades, and cutting edges, having fingers like scalpels and long, curved toe blades. It is basically a gigantic, bladed killing machine.

Though metallic in appearance ("quicksilver over chrome"), the Shrike is also described as an 'organic' machine, humanoid in a general way, but with four 'oddly jointed' arms and intense, multi-faceted ruby eyes.
