This is a photograph taken by the Fratelli Alinari studio, a well-known photographic business in Italy, of a Roman sarcophagus depicting the hunt of Diana. The relief carvings on the sarcophagus show Diana, the Roman goddess of the hunt, leading a group of figures in the pursuit of wild animals. The photograph captures the detailed carvings and the grandeur of the sarcophagus, which can now be found in the Rijksmuseum. This photo was created between 1852 and 1900, at the time when photographic documentation of historical artifacts was becoming popular.
