About the Item

This statue is a reproduction of "Diane la Chasseresse" (Diana the Huntress) by the renowned 18th-century French sculptor Jean-Antoine Houdon. The figure represents Diana, the Roman goddess of the hunt, known for her association with the moon, nature, and wild animals. The sculpture depicts Diana as a lithe, elegant figure, striding forward with a sense of grace and purpose. She is nude, which is typical of classical depictions of deities, emphasizing her connection to nature and the purity of her form. In her left hand, she holds a bow, symbolizing her role as a huntress. The position of her right hand suggests that she once held an arrow, ready to be drawn in the act of hunting. The figure stands on a round base, which is textured to resemble natural terrain, grounding the statue in the outdoor environment that Diana presides over. The sculpture is rendered in bronze, a material favored for its durability and ability to capture fine details in form and expression. This reproduction faithfully captures the neoclassical style and meticulous attention to anatomical accuracy that Houdon was celebrated for, embodying the blend of elegance, strength, and serene beauty that defines the goddess Diana.
