Image description

In the 1540s the classical fragments of a statue of Hercules were excavated in Rome. Restored and reassembled in the Palazzo Farnese, the monumental sculpture soon attracted artists and came to represent an ideal of physical strength and power. Rubens studied the work in detail during his stay in Italy between 1601 and 1608.
