Gallery | Hēraklēs, part 2: Other depictions of Hēraklēs Notes We invite members to share in the forum further images depicting the Twelve Labors. We’ve selected just a few for this Gallery. The main Labors have always been a popular subject for visual representation. In the post 2019.08.15 “Thinking comparatively about Greek mythology IV, Reconstructing Hēraklēs backward in time” Gregory Nagy discusses these Labors and additional sub-labors or deeds, and an alternative sequence, and analyses the way the main Labors derive from an “Indo-European” mythological tradition.
