"Jason with the Golden Fleece" is a renowned neoclassical sculpture created by the Danish-Icelandic sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen. Completed in the early 19th century, this work is considered one of Thorvaldsen's masterpieces and a significant contribution to the revival of classical sculpture during the period. The sculpture depicts the mythological hero Jason, famed for his quest to retrieve the Golden Fleece—a symbol of authority and kingship.

The sculpture showcases Jason at the moment of triumph, having obtained the fleece from the land of Colchis, as told in the ancient Greek myth. Thorvaldsen's representation of Jason is marked by a calm demeanor and an idealized physique, reflecting the neoclassical aesthetic that sought to emulate the harmony and proportions found in ancient Greek and Roman art. The figure of Jason is often noted for its poised stance, with one arm outstretched holding the fleece, and the other gripping his sheathed sword, conveying both his heroism and the gravity of his accomplishment.

"Jason with the Golden Fleece" was commissioned by Thomas Hope, a wealthy British art patron, and was initially modeled in clay in Rome in 1803, where Thorvaldsen had been working since 1797. The final marble version was completed in 1828 and became a seminal work in Thorvaldsen's oeuvre, enhancing his reputation across Europe. The sculpture is exemplary of Thorvaldsen's skill in carving marble and his ability to infuse his works with the ideals of classical antiquity while also imparting a sense of modernity and individual expression.

Today, "Jason with the Golden Fleece" is housed in the Thorvaldsen Museum in Copenhagen, Denmark, which is dedicated to the artist's life and work. The sculpture continues to be admired for its technical excellence and its embodiment of neoclassical ideals, and it remains a subject of study for art historians and enthusiasts of neoclassical art.
