Why might you wish to keep on the right side of her at breakfast time for example? Who is she?

 

[andytoprankin]

That's it - performed by the Saint Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra. Firing live cannons as per the original 1880 score - a pretty rare event given the health & safety risks.

Over to you.

Perhaps they were pointing into the Ukraine?

Is it Ceres, the goddess after whom ‘cereal’ is named? And if so, she kept corn in one hand but a scythe in the other.

Quite close there Yorkie.

No, she is too generic. There is a clue in the picture.

Kelloggia, goddess of Pop Tarts?

 

[Bolton's Boots]

I think that's Brigid, the Celtic goddess of spring and healing. Anyone would keep on her right side if they knew her father, Dagda - a big bugger he was...

 

[oldfrenchhorn]

Yes it is Brigid. She is also the patron saint of poultry and poultry farmers. There is what looks like a duck at the bottom left of the statue.
I think Yorkies got there first, so over to him.
