The artwork, found in the prestigious collection of Yale University, transports viewers to a world where mythological symbolism and Rococo aesthetics collide. In this masterpiece, Nebot skillfully depicts Fortuna, the Roman goddess of fortune and luck. She stands at the center of attention, surrounded by a whirlwind of vibrant colors and intricate details.
