Worshipped by many cultures, she held a significant place in mythology and religion, with shrines dedicated to her in various localities, including Capua and Aricia near Rome. The shrine in Aricia, situated on the shores of Lake Nemi, solidified her title as Diana Nemorensis, or Diana of the Woods. In this sculpture, Diana is depicted in her iconic role, armed with her crossbow as she takes aim at her target. Her posture exudes strength and determination, with her legs firmly locked and her body poised in perfect hunter's form. With her sword slung around her hip, she embodies both grace and power, symbolizing the ideals of beauty, strength, and chastity that have made her a revered figure throughout history. Crafted with meticulous detail using the lost wax method, this bronze sculpture captures the essence of Diana's legendary prowess. Mounted on a black marble base for added elegance, the sculpture features resin components for the head and arms, allowing for greater precision in capturing the delicate features of the goddess. Signed by the artist Preiss, this sculpture is a timeless tribute to the enduring legacy of Diana and her significance in mythology and feminist iconography.
