Romano-Celtic, Imperial Period, ca. 1st to 2nd century CE. A finely cast bronze figure of Jupiter (Greek Zeus) depicted nude save the cloak draped over his left arm, with delineated genitalia, pectorals, and buttocks, facing forward with his handsome bearded visage, and standing in contrapposto with his left leg bent at the knee, his right arm raised and bent at the elbow with this hand formed in a grip presenting an opening that most likely once held a spear, and his right arm extended and holding a thunderbolt in his grip - as Jupiter was the god of the heavens and earth and in essence the supreme leader of the Roman gods!
