The unpredictability of life was a recurrent theme in Vedder's art. The Roman goddess Fortuna (Fortune), associated with both good and bad fortune, chance, and luck, embodied the fickleness of fate. The ancients considered Fortuna the force behind such events as floods, tornadoes, and war. Here, Vedder portrays Fortuna greeting the viewer with seemingly open arms. And yet the gloomy storm cloud she sits upon suggests fate's darker side. An even closer look reveals that the deity has just cast some dice, suggesting the arbitrary nature of such states as prosperity and disaster.
