A Ralph Wood figure of Jupiter late 18th century

A Ralph Wood figure of Jupiter late 18th century, standing with one hand holding a staff which rests on his right shoulder, an eagle standing by his right foot, on a grassy base raised on a square black marbled base, titled 'Jupiter' in black to the underside, the front of the black base titled 'Hercules' beneath the paint, some restoration, 28.5cm.

The decorator has incorrectly titled this figure as Hercules on the front of the base. When this error was pointed out after the model had been fired, it was given back to the painter to correct the mistake. The normally white base was then overpainted in marbled black to hide the error, while the correct name of Jupiter was painted on the underside.
