A fine roman nicolo intaglio. Hercules with Cerberus.
2nd century A.D.
The hero is standing under a tree, facing left, with the body and the head slightly in three quarter. With his right hand he supports the leontea and keeps Cerberus on a leash; with the left he holds the club. The stone is broken in two parts and has numerous cracks and a lack. Beautiful execution.
