A stone sculpture of Air on plinth
About the Item
Air is represented as a beautiful woman, the Goddess Juno, with bare breasts, her right hand bent and out stretched to receive an eagle, the God Jupiter, who has just landed. The wind brushes her hair and has made her tunic slip from her shoulders and has flattened against her front and makes it bellow behind.
