Picture shows a bronze statue named "Forbidden Fruit" which was made in Roman in the 1st century AD. It features the hero Harakles, the legendary founder of the Olympic Games. He is said to have entered the Games himself: he won the wrestling and "pankration", killed a boxer and rode a divine horse to victory. Herakles is shown here with the muscled physique of a boxer, holding three of the golden apples of the Hesperides.
