Marble Statue from Corduba, Spain dated between 20-40 CE on display at the National Archaeological Museum in Madrid, Spain
This statue is of Livia portraying Fortuna or Copia. Livia was deified by her grandson, Emperor Claudius and was worshiped in the city as Fortuna, the goddess who gave men bounty and prosperity. The fruits of the earth held hn her cornucopia symbolise her power. This image, venerated in the imperial cult was an effective propoganda tool for legitimising the state’s authority.
