Large Greek mythology Hercules statues can be seen everywhere, whether in arenas, baths, or in public squares, while small Hercules marble Greek decorations are often found in private gardens and indoor shrines. Roman Emperor Commodus liked to play the role of Hercules, who, clothed in the skin of a lion and armed with a stick, personally fought gladiators and lions. Commodus also customized many sculptures of Hercules and made the face of Hercules statue into Greek marble decoration. The famous painter Rubens believed that “the artist who pursues perfection must have a deep understanding of ancient sculpture”. There is much research on this Greek decorative marble statue of Hercules in the Rubens manuscripts. As art historian Geoffrey Müller has pointed out, Farnese Hercules appears again and again as the archetype of perfect masculinity in Rubens’ magnificent paintings of heroic figures.
