This is an artwork created by Giovanni Giuliani, which is a clay sculpture model of Jupiter designed for the collection of the Heiligenkreis Monastery. The height of this work is 43.7 centimeters, created in 1720. Jupiter is the main god in Roman mythology, in charge of the sky and thunder. In this work, Jupiter is depicted with an eagle at his feet as a symbol of power. There is an inscription on the back of the eagle's wings: 'Johan Giullian (i) Ficit 1720'. However, the upper part of the eagle's beak and a portion of its base have already broken.
