The Marquise D'Hervey Saint-Denis as Diane 1885

Raimundo de Madrazo's 1885 painting "The Marquise D'Hervey Saint-Denis as Diane" portrays a woman in a flowing white dress, adorned with a crescent moon headdress, holding a bow and arrow. The subject, likely the Marquise herself, is depicted as the Roman goddess of the hunt, Diane, with a serene expression and an air of confidence. The artist's meticulous attention to detail and the use of soft, natural colors create a beautiful and timeless portrait.
