Gilt bronze sculpture representing Diana the Huntress naked, standing on a cloud, a bow in her hand and holding her quiver on the back by a belt that goes around her chest. The crescent, attribute of the goddess, stands out of her hair held by a high knot. In an elegant position, she seems to observe the path of the arrow she just sent. The sculpture is signed Mathurin Moreau. Son and pupil of Jean-Baptiste Moreau, he won the second Prix de Rome in 1842 and exhibited at the Salon of 1848 where he received numerous awards. His work is rich with a predilection for feminine grace, figures and genre scenes and allegories.
