Title: "Heracles the Divine Hero: A Roman Marble Head from Tusculum, Italy, Housed in the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, Copenhagen, Denmark" This exquisite marble head, depicting the legendary Greek hero Heracles (Roman equivalent: Hercules), is a testament to the enduring allure of ancient mythology. Dating back to the 1st century AD, this masterpiece was discovered in Tusculum, Italy, and now resides in the esteemed Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek in Copenhagen, Denmark. Heracles, the son of Zeus and Alcmene, was a demigod and one of the most renowned heroes in Greek mythology. Known for his incredible strength and bravery, Heracles completed twelve labors as penance for killing his family in a fit of madness, brought upon him by Hera's jealousy. This marble head, expertly carved, portrays Heracles in his mature years, with a strong, determined expression and a muscular build. The intricate details of the hair, beard, and facial features reveal the skill and artistry of the Roman sculptor.

This magnificent head of Heracles is just one of the many treasures housed in this esteemed institution, offering visitors a glimpse into the rich history and culture of ancient Greece and Rome. This ancient artifact, with its captivating history and intricate craftsmanship, serves as a reminder of the lasting impact of Greek and Roman mythology on our collective consciousness.
