Hercules Roman Statue

This sculpture depicts the final scene of Hercules’ life in Greek mythology. After completing the twelve trials, Hercules accepts a robe from his wife, Deianira, only to discover it is a trap set by the centaur Nessus, a deceitful tactic before his death. The robe is tainted with the poison of the Hydra. When Hercules puts it on, the poison quickly seeps into his skin, and the fiery pain causes him to tear at the garment and writhe in agony.
