"Diana" is a marble bust created in 1778 by renowned French sculptor Jean-Antoine Houdon. This Neoclassical work depicts the Roman goddess of the hunt, Diana, with a serene and idealized expression, showcasing Houdon's mastery in capturing the human form with meticulous detail. The bust's graceful pose and elegant drapery are characteristic of the Neoclassical style, which emphasized simplicity, order, and the revival of classical ideals. This piece is a testament to Houdon's enduring legacy as a master sculptor of the Enlightenment era.
