Our head study is to be put in relation with one of the following of Juno in the painting Juno ordering
to Aeolus to unleash the winds, part of the ceiling of the Palais Royal, painted by Coypel between 1703 and
1706 (for the sketch of this missing ceiling, see Antoine Coypel, Nicole Garnier, Arthéna, Paris, 1989, n°91, pl. XXI).
