Hercules vanquishes Cacus, On a square plinth stands the bearded Hercules with spread legs over the Cacus sunk on one knee. He presses his head with the right hand, the mouth of which is opened with force backwards, causing his body to overhang in the opposite direction. His left hand holds the raised arm with the clenched fist of Cacus, who is clutching Herculer's right leg with his right arm. From Hercules' loins the lion's skin hangs backwards with the head to the plinth and from the front with a leg over Cacus's legs, Cacus, the fire-breathing monster is killed in his cave by Hercules, Jan Pieter van Baurscheit (de Oude), Antwerp, c. 1700 - c. 1725, sandstone, h 250 cm w 1120 kg h 97 cm w 89 cm × d 89 cm × w 1152 kg w 96 cm d 96 cm × w 1095 kg w 3347 kg
