The sculpture content of The Rape of Proserpina is taken from ancient Roman myths. Pluto fell in love with the daughter of Ceres, the goddess of grain, and he took her to the underworld and changed her name to Proserpina. In this sculpture of The Rape of Proserpina in which two people are entwined and scrambled together, there are three different interpretations when viewing The Rape of Proserpina from three different directions. Seen from the left, Pluto is grasping and holding Proserpina forcefully, while the girl is trying to break free of his restraints; from the front, the entire sculpture seems to be Pluto showing off the trophies he has won and taking her Entering the underworld; from the right, Proserpina's face has the tears she shed when she prays to heaven, the wind blows her hair, and the three-headed dog (Cerberus) that guards the gate of hell is roaring at her feet.
