AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This sculpture depicts Hercules (Heracles) in a powerful and symbolic interpretation inspired by classical mythology. The hero is shown bearing the weight of the world, a metaphor for strength, endurance, and the burden of heroic responsibility. The presence of the lion’s head draped over his shoulder references the Lion of Nemea, conquered during his first labor and worn thereafter as a symbol of invincibility.

The figure is rendered with strong anatomical definition and a dynamic posture that emphasizes tension and effort. The globe, detailed with relief continents, rests against a vertical architectural structure reminiscent of classical ruins, creating a striking dialogue between the human figure and monumental form.

This work blends mythological symbolism with modern design, making it suitable both as a decorative object and as a conceptual sculptural piece for collectors of classical-inspired or contemporary art.


Every statue of Sparvy has an industrial background and is hand-signed for personal collection purposes.
