Description:

In Charles Gleyre's sensual oil painting "Hercules and Omphale" from 1862, warm, golden hues suffuse the intimate scene. The legendary hero Hercules, dressed in feminine attire, sits at the feet of Queen Omphale, who dons his lion skin and club. The role reversal theme is enhanced by the figures' postures and the luxurious setting. Gleyre's masterful use of color and light emphasizes the eroticism and power dynamics at play, inviting the viewer to contemplate the complexities of gender, mythology, and desire.
