If you remember your Greek mythology, Hercules was considered the strongest god around. During his 11th labor, Antaeus challenged Hercules to a wrestling match. Hercules knew that Antaeus drew his strength from the ground so all he would have to do would be to hold him up in the air and he would win. So he did, and Antaeus being held upside down and completely off the ground, had to grab onto whatever he could to try to get down.

The Italian Rennaissance sculptor Vincenzo de' Rossi sculpted the event for the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence:

Who said Rennaissance art was boring?
