  • Description

    This statue is an extremely Classical design. It shows Juno, one of the Capitoline Triad, the deities who shared a temple on the Capitoline Hill in Rome. She is dressed in a long-sleeved tunic, mantle and apron with a toothed necklace around her neck. The standard of craftsmanship is unusually high for work carved in the province of Britannia and there have been suggestions that it was the work of an eastern artist.
