Hendrick Goltzius's "Hercules" is a large-scale engraving created in 1592. The image depicts the legendary Greek hero Hercules, who was known for his strength and courage.

Goltzius's engraving is based on a classical sculpture by the Greek artist Lysippos, which is now lost. The image reflects the influence of classical art and culture on the Renaissance, with its emphasis on heroic ideals and the beauty and harmony of the natural world.

Goltzius was known for his technical mastery of engraving, and "Hercules" is considered one of his most accomplished works. The image reflects his skillful use of line and shading to create a sense of three-dimensional space and his ability to convey complex emotions and expressions through his figures.

Today, the engraving is considered an important example of Dutch engraving from the late 16th century and a testament to Goltzius's skill as an artist and engraver. It is also a vivid depiction of one of the most celebrated heroes of classical mythology, and a testament to the enduring power of these stories and their influence on Western culture.
