    At this end of the Hercules Alley there are two other sculptures that show the Greek Hercules at different moments.

    • Resting Hercules:

    The sculpture, created in 1715 by Giovanni Battista de Rossi, shows a powerful Hercules in a relaxed pose. The hero, enjoying peace after his deeds, is depicted lying on a rock. His muscles are tense, but his face is calm and relaxed. The sculpture symbolizes the strength and courage of Hercules, but also his ability to find peace after his heroic deeds.
