A full size bronze group of the standing Hercules wearing a lion pelt and cradling an infant in his left arm, supported by a tree stump.

Cast for Charles I from the ancient original in the Belvedere Court of the Vatican. The identity of the infant is not certain. He has been called the infant Bacchus and Ajax, but it is now generally considered to represent the hero's son Telephus, and to post-date the figure of Hercules himself.
