The Farnese Hercules is an ancient statue of Hercules, probably an enlarged copy made in the early third century AD and signed by Glykon,[1] from an original by Lysippos (or one of his circle) that would have been made in the fourth century BC.[2] The enlarged copy was made for the Baths of Caracalla in Rome (dedicated in 216 AD), where the statue was recovered in 1546,[3] and is now in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Naples. The heroically-scaled Hercules is one of the most famous sculptures of antiquity,[4] and has fixed the image of the mythic hero in the European imagination.
