Item Details

Description

**First Time At Auction**

Roman, Imperial Period, ca. 1st to 3rd century CE. A beautifully preserved leaded bronze votive figure of the goddess Tyche-Fortuna, the goddess of fortune, chance, and luck, draped in long robes and carrying a cornucopia, a symbol of her abundance. Her idyllic visage is crowned by a modius: a cylindrical crown representing a grain measure, and therefore the fecundity of the wearer. One hand is extended as if she once held another implement - most likely a rudder representing her role as controller of destinies. Fortuna was one of the most common deities worshipped in a domestic context, and she is often depicted, as she is here, with a sign of her wealth - the modius - in order to bring prosperity and luck. You can imagine standing before this beautiful figure on a home altar, asking the goddess to bring wealth to your family and friends. Size: 1.5" W x 3.6" H (3.8 cm x 9.1 cm)
