Votive relief for Jupiter Optimus Maximus and Juno Regina

When observing the relief, you can see Jupiter with a cloak, a fork of lightning and a sceptre on the right. On his right, an eagle is sitting on the globe with a laurel wreath in its beak and a fork of lightning in its claws. Juno is wearing a cloak over her undergarments and has a veil on her head with a diadem on top. To her right, Juno is making a sacrifice from a bowl into the fire on the altar. She is holding a small box of frankincense in her left hand. A dedication to Jupiter, the largest and the best, and to Juno, the queen, is written on the frame above and below the image. The name of the donor who installed the votive relief on his property can no longer be deciphered.
