"Hercules raadpleegt het orakel" (Hercules Consults the Oracle) is a 1678 etching by Jean Pesne, a French artist known for his portraiture and historical scenes. The print depicts a scene from Greek mythology, where Hercules seeks guidance from an oracle. The composition is simple, with the figures of Hercules and the oracle framed within a circular design. The fine detail and delicate lines of Pesne's etching add to the classical feel of the artwork. This etching is now part of the collection at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
