Juno Sealing Marriage Pact with Jupiter [reverse] 1680

This 1680 silver medal by Swedish artist Arvid Karlsteen depicts Juno and Jupiter shaking hands. Juno, the Roman goddess of marriage and women, is shown with a goose at her feet symbolizing her role in marriage. The circular medal features a Latin inscription: "Hinc Regna Heres," meaning "From here the kingdom is inherited." The reverse of this medal would be a significant part of the larger artistic design, but sadly that image is not available at this time.
