Fortuna was the Roman goddess of hope, prosperity and increase. She was later identified with the Greek goddess Tyche, and became the goddess of luck, and chance. She is depicted as holding a cornucopia - as the giver of abundance, a rudder - as the steerer of destinies or standing upon a ball - representing the uncertainty of fortune.
