    Roman Bronze Club of Herakles

    c. 1st-2nd Century A.D

    Large bronze pseudo wooden club with knots, originally the adornment of large statue of Herakles.

    Scarce within Graeco-Roman art and sculpture is Herakles depicted without his club, the club itself symbolising the hero's primitive nature and sheer strength.
