125 works from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and  seven from the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Naples reveal this most popular ancient goddess in her roles as instigator of sexual desire, patroness of brides, seafarers and warriors, agent of political harmony, adulterous seductress, and mother to mischievous Eros.
