Herakles (commonly known as Hercules) was renowned for his strength and was the subject of many writings and art throughout Greece and Rome. He was also seen as a champion of the people. Here he is depicted in a closeup from the neck up. This image looks a lot like the statues that were erected in his honor. It looks great in .9999 fine silver.
