About this work

This pen and watercolor drawing by Thomas Rowlandson shows two muscular nude male figures locked in combat, one lifting the other off the ground while the lifted figure reaches out with a clawed hand. The figures stand on a grassy patch beside a pale green rock, and the drapery at the lower body is rendered in muted green and brown washes. The work is dated ca. 1780-1825 and represents the mythological wrestling episode of Hercules and Antaeus.
