Painting depicting the god Hercules confronting the Hydra, a mythical creature. Amidst towering, rocky cliffs, Hercules stands on the left of the painting, dressed in clothing that exposes his figure. He looks to the right, where the seven-headed hydra rears up, bearing its teeth. A nude figure of a woman is on the ground in front of the Hydra, and an orange sun peeks from behind red clouds in the background.
