Bronze Medallion – Hercules and the Nemean Lion (Bas-Relief)Late 19th – early 20th Century Elegant bronze medallion with a finely patinated finish, depicting Hercules in his struggle against the Nemean Lion, one of the most famous episodes in Greek mythology. The scene, modeled in bas-relief and high relief, shows the hero's moment of maximum effort, rendered with great energy, vigorous musculature, and accurate details of the lion's cloak and mane. The edge is simple and regular, while the back retains an old iron fixing system, with original period brackets and supports, indicative of a traditional and non-industrial production. The natural patina, with green and brown variations, testifies to the age of the artifact and has not been altered. A decorative piece ideal for collectors of historical bronzes, mythological objects, or decorative arts from the second half of the 19th century / early 20th century.
