Nel margine inferiore: Mutilat indefessum Acheloum divite cornu caussa trucis pugnae Deianira fuit.Della serie "Le fatiche di Ercole", da dipinti di Frans Floris realizzati nel 1554 e andati poi perduti. La scena mostra Ercole, con la pelle del leone che svolazza sulle sue spalle, nel momento culminante della lotta con il toro. Sullo sfondo, in alto a sinistra, nei pressi di un boschetto, tre figure femminili nude: in piedi è la Fortuna, che sta facendo riempire da due ancelle una cornucopia; in alto a destra è raffigurata la conclusione dell'impresa: il toro si allontana, lasciato libero da Ercole; in lontananza le case di un borgo. Magnifica prova, ricca di toni, impressa su carta vergata coeva, con sottili margini, in perfette condizioni. L’opera è una fedele replica dell’incisione di Cornelis Cort realizzata nel 1563 ed è edita dall’incisore Nicolaes Lauwers verso il 1630.

Opera tratta dai "Los Caprichos", per la prima volta pubblicati nel 1799. Prova della quarta edizione di dodici, stampata dalla calcografia di Madrid, circa 1870. Aquaforte, acquatinta brunita e puntasecca, in perfetto stato di conservazione. La serie chiamata Los Caprichos, è composta da ottanta incisioni, la cui prima edizione [l’unica a non essere pubblicata postuma] venne alla luce ne 1799. Curata in fase d’edizione dallo stesso artista, la serie fu commercializzata e dopo poco tempo ritirata dal mercato. Infatti, a causa dei numerosi soggetti che ironizzavano sulla società spagnola di fine secolo, il Goya subì una censura. L’interpretazione dei soggetti rappresentati su queste lastre, sempre enigmatiche, è spesso controversa Etching with burnished aquatint and engraving, 1799.

Cured in phase edition by the same artist, the series was marketed and before long withdrawn from the market. In fact, because of the many subjects that mocked the Spanish society of the century, Goya suffered censorship. The interpretation of the subjects represented on these plates, always enigmatic, is often controversial. Harris 48, Delteil 50
