19th-century oil painting on canvas, titled "Destiny", was created in 1900 by John William Waterhouse.
The main character in a red dress, holding a vessel to her mouth, represents Tyche, the Greek goddess of fortune (see Wikipedia). It displays a blend between medieval aesthetics and the mythological symbolism of ancient Greece, evident in the globe, window, book, floor, and pillars.
It is currently located at the Towneley Hall Museum, Burnley, United Kingdom.
