Asset Overview
Statue of Hercules, dated 18th century, unknown author.
One of Hercules' labor was to slay the Hydra, an animal with several snake-like heads. This is probably theme of this sculpture, or maybe is he fighting a sea monster ?
Very fine sculpture, with many details, and a great rendering of muscles, skin, face... Total height 2 meters
This work was restored by French company "Socra" : overal cleaning of moss, lichen... and re-creation of the missing parts (hands and club, monster's heads, etc).
Here is the view of the unrestored statue :
