This 1713 engraving by Louis Surugue, titled "Reliëf geflankeerd door Hercules met het Arcadische hert en Hercules met het zwijn van Erymanthus," depicts the Greek hero Hercules in two scenes. On the left, Hercules wrestles with the Arcadian stag, while on the right he struggles with the Erymanthian Boar. This black and white print showcases Surugue's mastery of detail, showcasing the figures' musculature and the surrounding foliage in a style that exemplifies Baroque art. This intricate work is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
