Description
"This painting depicts the figure of Fortuna, the Roman goddess of fortune, and the personification of luck. She is holding a cornucopia, one of her traditional attributes, and, in front of a palatial background, holds a jeweled crown in her hand. The picture almost certainly dates from Gascar’s time in England in the 1670s." [1]
