| Vincenzo de Rossi, Hercules and Diomedes (1560) |
This statue, currently in the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, was commissioned by Cosimo I de’ Medici as one of twelve (of which seven were completed) showing the Labours of Hercules.
Diomedes is obviously losing, because he's trying to pull Hercules's dick off. (Either that or he's trying to make peace by giving him a hand-job.)
And the demigod's tool looks unhappily small - and maybe not altogether intact!

The model is of course David Čiháček, and his membrum virile is in fact very beautiful, so it's a pity I couldn't find an uncensored version of this.
