"Diana wordt door haar nimfen toegerust voor de jacht" is an anonymous 18th-century drawing depicting the Roman goddess Diana being prepared for a hunt by her nymphs. The piece is a study in classical mythology and shows Diana receiving help from her nymphs, a common theme in art. The drawing, executed in black chalk and wash, is a testament to the artist's skill in depicting the human form. The dynamic poses and subtle details, such as the flowing drapery and the expressions on the faces, bring the scene to life. This drawing, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the artistic practice of the 18th century and showcases the enduring fascination with classical themes in art.
