EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Lucas Cranach the Elder's masterpiece, "Les travaux d'Hercule: Hercule volant les pommes du jardin des Hesperides" (Hercules stealing the apples from the Hesperides). Painted in oil on wood after 1537, this artwork measures 109.5x100 and is housed in the Herzog Anton Ulrich Museum in Braunschweig, Germany. The painting depicts a mythological scene from ancient Greece where Hercules can be seen soaring through the air, determined to steal the golden apples from the garden of Hesperides. The lush greenery of the garden surrounds an apple tree laden with tempting fruits while a group of sheep grazes peacefully nearby. Lucas Cranach masterfully portrays both human and natural elements in this Renaissance-era artwork. A naked woman representing one of the nymphs guarding the apples gazes helplessly as Hercules makes his daring theft. The composition exudes a sense of movement and tension as Hercules defies gravity to accomplish his mission. This print not only showcases Cranach's artistic prowess but also highlights various themes such as mythology, botany, and ancient Greek culture. It serves as a visual reminder of humanity's fascination with legends and our continuous pursuit for knowledge throughout history.
