Hercules Conquering the Molionide Twins.

Woodcut, 1496-98. 390x283 mm; 15 3/8x11 1/4 inches, narrow margins. A very good, well-inked Meder III a-b impression with strong contrasts, with the worm-hole on Hercules' nose and the right eye of the woman, but with little to no additional wear, evenly-printed and dark throughout. Bartsch 127; Meder 238.
