The Labors of Hercules: Hercules Killing the Giant Cacus

Black and white engraving of a muscular, nude male figure standing over a defeated male figure on the ground. The standing figure has short hair and a cloth wrapped around his waist. He holds a club in his right hand and uses his left leg to pin the other man to the ground. The man on the ground has long hair and a beard. He wears a short, round shield on his back and a crown on his head. He lies on his back in a rocky area with a cow's head visible behind him. Rocks and plants are scattered around. The standing man appears to be stepping on the seated man's stomach. Text appears at the top of the image. A small rectangle in the top-left corner contains the date.
