Description
Ancient Roman sculpture of Hercules. Unfortunately, many of the sculpture's elements were broken.
Rodin was especially proud of a Hercules in his collection, saying: "Strength is often allied with grace, and true grace is strong; this Hercules bears witness to this double truth".
This was scanned at The 'Rodin and the art of ancient Greece' exhibition at The British Museum, London (26th April - 29th July 2018). The work originates from the Musée Rodin, Paris, where it is on permanent display.
