Omphale with the Attributes of Heracles, France, - Mobili e Antiquariato

biscuit porcelain, the nude Omphale sitting on a throne in antique style, wearing a lion pelt on her head, the lion skin covers her back and her left thigh, bracelets and sandals on both sides, in her right hand she holds the club of Heracles, her head turned away while she looks victoriously into the distance, height 34.5 cm, base with chipped areas, base with tension crack
France, unmarked, model number 27, second half of the 19th century, after a model by Antonio Canova (Ru) 

In Greek mythology, Omphale was the daughter of Jardanos and queen of Lydia after her marriage to Tmolos, an early Lydian king. After his death, she continued to rule alone. She bought Hercules out of slavery and made him wear women’s clothes. Hercules performed many a great deed for Omphale, slaying a dragon that plagued the country and razing to the ground the city of the Itonians. He served her for three years, and Omphale bore him a son, Lamos.
