"Sleeping Hercules" is a renowned sculpture created by the Italian Renaissance artist Baccio Bandinelli. This work of art, which dates back to the 16th century, depicts the mythological hero Hercules in a state of repose, capturing a moment of vulnerability and human-like slumber in a figure typically associated with strength and heroic feats. Bandinelli, who was a contemporary and rival of Michelangelo, is known for his mastery in sculpting the human form, and "Sleeping Hercules" exemplifies his skill in rendering anatomical detail and conveying character through posture and expression.

The sculpture is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its thematic exploration. By choosing to portray Hercules at rest, Bandinelli invites contemplation of the hero's mortality and the temporary cessation of his legendary labors. The work resonates with the Renaissance fascination with classical antiquity, as it draws upon ancient Greek and Roman art and mythology for inspiration.

"Sleeping Hercules" has been admired for its technical execution and its emotional resonance, contributing to Bandinelli's reputation as one of the important sculptors of his time. The piece is often discussed in the context of Bandinelli's oeuvre as an example of his ability to compete with the era's great artists and to create works that stand as testaments to the humanistic values and artistic ambitions of the Renaissance. The sculpture remains an important object of study for art historians and a cherished piece for art enthusiasts, reflecting the enduring legacy of Bandinelli's artistry.
