"Hercules (b. 73; M., Holl. 63)" is an engraving created by the renowned German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer. Dürer, born in 1471 in Nuremberg, is celebrated for his contributions to printmaking, painting, and theoretical writings on art. This particular engraving, produced around 1496-1498, is one of Dürer's early works and showcases his exceptional skill in the medium of engraving, which was a relatively new art form at the time.

The engraving depicts the mythological hero Hercules, a figure from ancient Greek and Roman mythology known for his strength and his legendary Twelve Labors. In Dürer's interpretation, Hercules is shown in a dynamic and muscular pose, emphasizing his physical prowess. The composition is rich with symbolic elements and intricate details, characteristic of Dürer's meticulous approach to his art. The background features a dense and detailed landscape, adding depth and context to the central figure.

Dürer's "Hercules" is notable not only for its artistic quality but also for its exploration of classical themes through the lens of Renaissance humanism. The work reflects the period's renewed interest in ancient mythology and the human form, as well as the influence of Italian art on Dürer's style. The engraving is part of a broader body of work in which Dürer delved into mythological and allegorical subjects, blending his Northern European artistic heritage with the classical ideals he encountered during his travels to Italy.

The engraving is cataloged as "b. 73; M., Holl. 63" in the comprehensive catalog of Dürer's works, indicating its place within the extensive oeuvre of the artist. Today, "Hercules" is studied and admired for its technical mastery and its contribution to the development of printmaking as a significant art form during the Renaissance.
