Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Boncompagni Ludovisi Collection.
Coarse-grained crystalline marble. This work, extensively restored in the 17th Century, is a representation of Hercules from the 1st Century AD. The head was inspired by the works of the Greek sculptor Lysippus, made in the mid 4th Century BC and known to us from famous Roman copies, such as the Farnese Hercules and by the Hercules Epitrapezios. The hair is held in place by a band, perforated with holes for the attachment of a metal crown. The bust is a 19th Century addition. |
