Start Over Collection place Tuscany, Central Italy Person depicted Apollo (Greek and Roman diety)

Hearst Museum object titled Plaster cast, accession number 21-21, described as Cast of an apotheosis of Herakles (Latin: Hercules), representing the hero and 5 deities advancing to left: Demeter, Apollo, Athena, Ares, and Poseidon (Latin: Ceres, Apollo, Minerva, Mars and Neptune), Terracotta.
