Image created by Anton LaVey (1930-1997), which is a modification of the Baphomet originally published in 1897 in the book "La Clef de la Magie Noire" by Stanislas de Guaita. This image is a religious symbol, whose original author is long dead, and is widely used by many in the occult world, as such it is not subject to copyright.

The original 1897 image is shown below:

This symbol is of a goats head in the pentagram with its horns pointing upward in defiance. The symbols around the outside are hebrew letters that spell out "Leviathan", the beast of the sea.
