I have a silver souvenir spoon, inscribed with "Mame from James, May
29, 1891" and on the bowl of the spoon is engraved a picture of a
monumental obelisk, set on a pedastel, with steps leading up it and
what is perhaps a door leading into the base, like an entrance. At
each corner of the pedastel is what may be a winged creature - a
griffin? There is also a statue of a man, about 1/3 the height of the
obelisk, standing at its base.

Take a look at the obelisk, creatures, and man in this image:

Any similarities with your spoon?
