"Hercules Fighting The Fury And The Discord" (holl.15) is an intricate woodcut created by the Flemish artist Christoffel Jegher in the 17th century. Jegher, who was born in Antwerp around 1596 and died in 1652, is renowned for his exceptional skill in woodcut printmaking, a technique that involves carving an image into the surface of a wooden block, which is then inked and pressed onto paper to create a print. This particular work is a testament to Jegher's collaboration with the eminent Baroque painter Peter Paul Rubens, whose dynamic compositions and vigorous figures heavily influenced Jegher’s prints.

The woodcut depicts the mythological hero Hercules engaged in a fierce battle with personifications of Fury and Discord, embodying the classical themes of struggle and chaos. The composition is marked by its dramatic intensity and the muscular, contorted forms of the figures, which are characteristic of Rubens' influence. The swirling lines and intricate details showcase Jegher's mastery of the woodcut medium, capturing the tumultuous energy of the scene.

Jegher’s collaboration with Rubens was significant in the dissemination of Rubens' works, as woodcuts allowed for the reproduction and wider distribution of his compositions. "Hercules Fighting The Fury And The Discord" exemplifies this partnership, merging Rubens' powerful artistic vision with Jegher's technical prowess. The print not only reflects the artistic trends of the Baroque period but also highlights the collaborative nature of art production during this time.

This woodcut is part of a larger body of work that underscores Jegher’s contribution to the art of printmaking and his role in the broader context of Flemish Baroque art. Today, Jegher's prints, including "Hercules Fighting The Fury And The Discord," are valued for their historical significance and their artistic excellence, offering insight into the collaborative processes and aesthetic values of the 17th century.
