Diana the Hunter is also known as Diana Nemorensis and Artemis. She was worshipped by many as the goddess of the hunt, animals, woodland, and the moon. In Capua and in Aricia, localities near Rome, there are still shrines dedicated to her. Her shrine in Aricia was on the shores of Lake Nemi. For that reason, she was named Diana Nemorensis- Diana of the Woods. This sculpture depicts the beloved goddess with her mighty spear in hand and an arm slung around the neck of a loyal deer. A sword curves around her hip and her flirty dress blow in the wind. Her womanly body is curvy and voluptuous. Her wavy hair is wild and blows off her face. Throughout time Diana has become a popular feminist figure because of her beauty, strength, and chastity. This brown patina sculpture was cast using the Lost Wax Method and mounted on a marble base.
