About the Item

Exquisite bust in Carrara statuary marble, with a base also carved in turned marble. The sculpture depicts the bust of the goddess Diana the Huntress, also known in this iconography as Diane de Poitiers. The goddess is depicted half-length, with her breasts and a light, one-shoulder peplos that leaves one arm free for archery. Her candid and serious face is seen in profile, while her hair is gathered in a braided ponytail. The goddess has two small horns on her head, symbols of her sacred animal, the deer, which also represent her connection to hunting and game. This is a sculpture of great quality and refinement, capable of lending a touch of class and antiquity to any setting. Italian craftsmanship, first half of the 19th century.
