HORN OF PLENTY / CORNUCOPIA

Obviously, the Horn of Plenty, also known as the“Cornucopia”  (from the two Latin words; “Cornu” meaning “horn” and “Copia” meaning “plenty”) represents the harvest and abundance (in life): Fruitful life.  

In Christian art, some representations refer to the harvest as a symbol of the Last Judgement.  

It is also often found in artistic representations (paintings, sculptures, etc.) of Greek mythological scenes, being held by several different deities (i.e. Tyche or Fortuna – goddess of riches and prosperity).
