"Hermes Psychopomps" is a painting by the Austro-Hungarian artist Adolf Hiremy-Hirschl, created in 1896. The artwork is a striking example of the Symbolist movement, which flourished in Europe at the end of the 19th century. The painting depicts Hermes, the ancient Greek god known for being a messenger of the gods, in his role as a psychopomp, a guide of souls to the afterlife. In the artwork, Hermes is portrayed leading a procession of the dead with his characteristic winged helmet and caduceus, a staff entwined with two serpents, which is a symbol of his role as a guide between the mortal world and the realm of the gods.

The composition of "Hermes Psychopomps" is rich with allegorical elements and imbued with a sense of the mystical journey of the soul after death. The painting reflects the Symbolist artists' fascination with mythology, the supernatural, and the exploration of the human psyche. Hiremy-Hirschl's use of muted colors and ethereal figures contributes to the otherworldly atmosphere of the piece, which is characteristic of his work during this period.

Adolf Hiremy-Hirschl (1860–1933) was known for his allegorical and mythological scenes, and "Hermes Psychopomps" is considered one of his masterpieces. The painting is a testament to the artist's technical skill and his ability to convey complex spiritual and philosophical themes through visual art. It remains an important work within the oeuvre of Hiremy-Hirschl and a significant contribution to the Symbolist movement, which sought to express the ineffable aspects of human experience beyond the visible and rational world.
