Lot Description
A Roman Marble Diana Venatrix
CIRCA 2ND CENTURY C.E.
the goddess of the hunt depicted in quick motion accompanied by her hunting dog at her left side, her left leg in forward stride, shod in elaborately-laced sandals, her right extended behind, her quiver over her right shoulder, her short, sleeveless chiton with overfold, bound up in a billowing sash tied over her shoulder and around her waist, the diaphanous fabric revealing the form of her body, her gaze directed toward her left, her right arm originally raised to remove an arrow from her quiver, her now-missing left arm once holding her bow, her hair swept back from the forehead and bound in a double top-knot, preserving portions of the integral plinth.
Height 40 inches.
