專家說明

The depicted scenes are: The death of Hercules on a funeral pyre; Hercules wrestling with Achelous for the hand of Deinara; The abduction of Deinara by the centaur Nessus; and The slaying of the Lernaean Hydra.

The present works are after four paintings by Reni, executed between 1617 and 1620 as part of a proposed decorative cycle of the Labours of Hercules for Ferdinando Gonzaga (1587-1626). The paintings, now in the Louvre, were engraved in 1669/70 by Gilles Rousselet (1610-1686).
