"Hercules and Omphale" is a notable oil painting completed in 1735 by the French artist François Boucher, a prominent figure in the Rococo movement. The painting depicts the mythological story of Hercules, the demigod known for his strength and heroic labors, and Omphale, the Lydian queen. According to the myth, Hercules was enslaved by Omphale as a punishment for a murder he committed, and during his servitude, he was subjected to performing feminine tasks while Omphale wore his lion skin and carried his club.

Boucher's interpretation of this scene is emblematic of the Rococo style, characterized by its playful, sensual, and ornate qualities. The painting showcases Boucher's skill in rendering soft, pastel colors and his ability to capture the lightness and decorative elegance that define the period. The figures are portrayed in a moment of intimate role reversal, with Hercules adorned in women's clothing and Omphale assertively assuming the hero's attributes, a theme that resonates with the Rococo fascination with eroticism and gender fluidity.

The work is significant for its artistic merit and as an example of the cultural and social mores of 18th-century France. "Hercules and Omphale" reflects the influence of classical antiquity on European art and the reinterpretation of mythological subjects with a contemporary, often playful twist. François Boucher's painting remains an important piece in the study of Rococo art and continues to be appreciated for its aesthetic beauty and historical value.
