"Hercules and Omphale" is a notable work by the Venetian painter Jacopo Guarana (1720–1808), who was an influential figure in the late Baroque and Rococo periods in Italy. This painting is a vivid depiction of the mythological narrative involving Hercules, a hero known for his strength and adventures, and Omphale, the Lydian queen. The story, derived from classical mythology, tells of Hercules being sold into slavery to Omphale as a punishment, where the roles of the hero and his master are humorously reversed, with Omphale wearing Hercules' lion skin and he, in turn, donning women's clothing.

Jacopo Guarana's rendition of "Hercules and Omphale" is celebrated for its dynamic composition, rich color palette, and the delicate portrayal of the figures, embodying the elegance and ornamental qualities characteristic of the Rococo style. The painting showcases Guarana's mastery in blending mythological themes with the artistic trends of his time, making it a significant piece in the study of 18th-century Venetian art.

While the exact date of creation for "Hercules and Omphale" is not precisely documented, it is believed to have been painted in the latter half of the 18th century, a period during which Guarana received numerous commissions for both religious and secular subjects. His works are known for their theatricality and the use of light, which he employed to enhance the narrative and emotional depth of his paintings.

"Hercules and Omphale" by Jacopo Guarana remains an important work for scholars and enthusiasts of Venetian art, offering insights into the cultural and artistic milieu of the time. It exemplifies the transition in European art from the grandeur of the Baroque to the more intimate and decorative Rococo style. As with many of Guarana's works, this painting is appreciated not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its contribution to the visual interpretation of classical mythology in the context of 18th-century artistic expression.
