Nemean lion

This is a modern depiction of the battle between Hercules and the Nemean lion. Even today, the myth shows up in modern art. There is no artistic credit available, other than it was created by Weta Workshop.

Nemean Lions (named Golden Lion or War Lion in Mythika) are powerful hunters with very tough skin which is almost impossible to pierce with normal weapons. Their manes are covered with arrows and the weapons from their victims.
