| Farnese Herakles | The Farnese Herakles is a massive and muscular statue of Herakles, originally cast in bronze through a method called lost wax casting and was made by the bronze sculptor Lysippos. The statue depicts a weary Herakles or Herculies leaning on his club, which has his lion-skin draped over it. He is performing one of his last twelve trials which is suggested by the apple he holds behind his back. This statue was well-liked by the Romans and copies have been found in Roman palaces and gymnasiums. (references) | ||
