Marble Statue of Herakles Seated on a Rock in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, May 2012
Title: Marble statue of Herakles seated on a rock
Period: Imperial
Date: 1st or 2nd century CE
Culture: Roman
Medium: Marble
Dimensions: total H. 49 3/4 in. (126.4 cm)
H. of figure 23 3/4 in. (60.3 cm)
H. of seat 26 in. (66 cm)
Classification: Stone Sculpture
Credit Line: Rogers Fund, 1911
Accession Number: 11.55
Adaptation of a Greek statue of the late 4th or early 3rd century B.C.
The great hero was shown resting on a rock with his legs stretched out in front of him, his club braced under his left armpit. The exceptionally fine and realistic rendering of the lean, muscled body and the powerful curve of the back bring to mind the works of Lysippos, a famous sculptor of the late fourth century B.C.
