Item Details

 



A captivating statue depicting the Greek myth of ‘Hercules slaying the Nemean Lion’.  Created from stone composite, with remnants of terracotta flaking paint. Mid 20th Century.


In Greek mythology Hercules was the son of Zeus and a mortal woman, the renowned hero known for his incredible strength and bravery. Tasked with completing twelve labours as penance for his misdeeds, Hercules faced the Nemean lion—a beast with impenetrable skin. Struggling to pierce it, Hercules strangled the lion with his bare hands and returned with its pelt as proof of his victory.


The statue will bring a classical and timeless elegance to your garden or interior.
