The Farnese Hercules is a renowned ancient Roman marble statue, a Roman copy of a lost Greek bronze by Lysippos or his school, dating to the 4th century BCE. Standing at over 10 feet tall, the statue portrays Hercules in a moment of rest, leaning on his club, which is draped with the skin of the Nemean lion. The muscular figure reflects both physical strength and exhaustion, embodying the hero's dual nature as a mortal and divine figure. Discovered in the Baths of Caracalla in 1546, it profoundly influenced Renaissance and Baroque art, symbolizing perseverance and the human struggle for greatness.
