Weary Heracles Hercules Farnese plaque
In Greek mythology, Heracles was
the demigod son of Zeus and
Alcmene, the grand-daughter of
Perseus and the wife of
Amphitryon. In Roman mythology
he was called Hercules. He was,
arguably, the greatest of the
mythical heroes, best known for
his superhuman strength and
many stories are told of his life.
The most famous group of stories
tell of The Twelve Labours of
Herakles. In ancient art is
portrayed nude and leaning (hence
"Weary Heracles") with the lion's
skin near him. This is a
reproduction of the statue Weary
Heracles Hercules Farnese now in
the National Archeological
Museum at Naples.
