Pictures This picture of Hestia shows some of her attributes. She has a flowered branch in her right hand which shows her being Goddess of home & hearth. She also has a robe on because of her Goddess of home & hearth. I also chose this picture because it was the only one I could find of her. Pre-476
Modern Picture I chose this modern picture of Hestia because it shows her attributes in a more modern way. It shows her holding a candle, which represents her being the Goddess of Sacrificial Flame. Also she is veiled and has a robe, which shows her being the Goddess of the home&hearth.
