Inlays of Engraved Aquatinted Maillechort.

The idea of metal with structured relief inlaid inside stone, as if we discovered a hidden and unexpected universe at its heart. A journey to the heart of matter and elements.

Heracles was the greatest of the Greek heroes, a paragon of masculinity, the ancestor of royal clans who claimed to be Heracleidae, and a champion of the Olympian order against chthonic monsters. In Rome and the modern West, he is known as Hercules, with whom the later Roman emperors, in particular Commodus and Maximian, often identified themselves. The Romans adopted the Greek version of his life and works essentially unchanged, but added anecdotal detail of their own, some of it linking the hero with the geography of the Central Mediterranean.
