Description from the seller

Sculpture of a torso of Heracles in Carrara marble dust. A Roman reproduction from the 2nd century located in the National Archaeological Museum of Madrid. Heracles, or Hercules in Rome, was a hero and demigod son of Zeus and a mortal woman, Alcmene. Heracles' most famous feat was the Twelve Labors, assigned by King Eurystheus as impossible tasks, which the demigod nonetheless managed to complete.
Academic, professional sculpture, entirely handmade by professional artisans. A piece from a museum plaster cast collection. The workmanship has very ancient origins and is executed entirely by hand by artists in the sculpture field, made with materials such as scagliola and Carrara marble powder.

The indicated dimensions include the base, if present.

The shipping is entrusted to a packaging company (professional packaging).
