The Colossal Head of Jupiter, sculpted by John Osborn in 1831, stands at Royal Victoria Park in Bath, England. Weighing six tons and crafted from Bath stone, the statue is celebrated for its idealized features and sublime expression, reminiscent of the finest works from the Greek classical period.
This remarkable piece was created under challenging circumstances and was intended as a testament to the artist's vision, with efforts initiated to secure funds for its installation to support Osborn's destitute family. A new plinth was designed in 1861 to elevate the statue, adding to its grandeur and significance within the park's collection.
