 Both sculptures display contrapposto, a typical style from Lysippos in which the figure's weight is thrown entirely on one foot.Though their muscles are exaggerated, they stand in marked contrast to the bearded, burly and perhaps more familiar "Farnese Hercules".The statue of Hercules from Forum Boarium is based on his twelve labors where he must bring back the Golden Apples of Hesperides to Eurystheus.
