Roman Bronze Statuette of Diana in the Getty Villa, July 2008

Roman Bronze Statuette of Diana in the Getty Villa, July 2008
Statuette of Diana
Roman, made in Asia Minor (present-day Turkey), 100-1 BC
Bronze

Inventory # 67.AB.15

Diana (goddess of the hunt) is represented in this carefully detailed statuette. She wears a short tunic and open-toed boots that are decorated with floral motifs and lined with animal skins. Her attributes are now missing, but she probably once held a bow in her lowered left hand, and she appears to reach back with her right hand to draw an arrow from a quiver.
