This image is a black and white engraving that depicts a scene from classical mythology, specifically featuring the characters Hercules and Hesione. The central figure is Hercules, shown in a heroic pose with impressive musculature, suggestive of strength and vigor. He is turned partially away from the viewer, looking back over his shoulder, and seems to be engaged in battle or some heroic effort. In his right hand, he holds a club—a weapon commonly associated with Hercules in mythological representations. To the left of Hercules is a female figure—presumably Hesione—who appears to be recoiling in distress, possibly pleading or reacting to the scene around her. She is partially draped, with some of her body exposed, typical of classical depictions of such figures where modesty and distress are simultaneously conveyed. In the foreground, a ferocious multi-headed creature, likely the Lernaean Hydra based on its portrayal with multiple heads, is being attacked by Hercules. This creature's serpentine necks and heads are reminiscent of depictions of the Hydra from Greek mythology. The hydra is shown recoiling and snapping as if in pain or anger. The background includes a classical landscape with buildings that could be interpreted as part of an ancient city or settlement, and a mountainous terrain. Onlookers are present in the distant background, suggesting an audience to the mythic event. Their presence underlines the significance of Hercules's feat as something witnessed and to be remembered. At the bottom of the engraving is text that reads "HERCULE ET HESIONE." This inscription solidifies the identity of the main characters. There are signatures or inscriptions on the left as "J. Moreau delin.," possibly attributing the drawing to the delineator, and on the right as "Ph. Triere Sculp," which likely refers to the engraver or artist who produced the final image.

The image is an engraving titled "Hercule et Hésione," depicting a scene from classical mythology. A muscular man, identified as Hercules, is shown in the act of rescuing a woman, Hésione. Hercules is standing, slightly bent, holding a large club in his right hand while his left arm supports Hésione, who appears to be in distress. Hésione is partially draped but mostly nude, leaning against Hercules with her eyes closed and her right arm raised. They are near a rocky terrain, and in the background, the sea is visible with a sailing ship. There is also a dramatic landscape of mountains and a city in the distant background, with a large crowd of people witnessing the scene from the shore. The engraving is detailed and rich in texture, emphasizing the muscular form of Hercules and the flowing lines of Hésione's hair and clothing.

This is a classical engraving titled "Hercule et Hésione" (Hercules and Hesione). The artwork shows a dramatic mythological scene where two figures are depicted in a rocky landscape. One appears to be rescuing the other from a precarious situation near what seems to be a sea monster or creature (partially visible in the scene).

In the background, there are mountains and what appears to be a wall or fortification. The image has a border frame and includes credits at the bottom showing "J.M. Moreau delin." and "P.P. Arrivet sculp." indicating the artist and engraver respectively.

The image depicts a classical mythological scene. In the foreground, a nude male figure is shown seated on a rock, while a second nude male figure stands behind him. Based on their poses and the title "Hercule et Hésione", the seated figure likely represents Hesione while the standing figure represents Hercules (Heracles in Greek mythology). The background shows a mountainous landscape with a fortified structure, possibly the city of Troy. The overall style is neoclassical, with fine shading and anatomical detail reminiscent of 18th-19th century academic art.
