Jupiter
(Roman Empire )
The weight is on the right leg, beside which an eagle stands. The right hand is at the side holding the thunderbolt and the left is raised in the position for holding a staff. A chlamys is thrown over the left shoulder and upper arm, and falls to the back and front. The head is bearded and turns slightly to the right. The face may have been majestic, but is now much worn.
