Description
For his eleventh labour, Eurystheus ordered Heracles to bring back the golden apples from the Garden of the Hesperides, near the Atlas Mountains, guarded by a serpent. Here, the labour is complete. Hercules (Heracles) is holding the fruit in his left hand, with the strap from the quiver across his body. In the top-right corner, hidden among the leaves, is a piece of an arrow: the one that killed the serpent.
