In this glistening, dark bronze sculpture, Diana, goddess of the hunt, seems to be hurling herself through the air accompanied by her hound, leaping below her. The work is characterized by slender, smooth forms rendering a delicate grace. Diana looks toward her left side, our right, in three-fourths view and stretches her left arm and hand straight behind her holding a very long, slightly curved bow; her right arm is raised at her right side, bent at the elbow with her hand near but not touching her face. Diana’s long hair is swept back over her right shoulder, her facial features idealized. On full display is her lithe, youthful body, nude except for a narrow long shawl that loops gracefully over her shoulders with both tails streaming behind her. Her left leg is raised and bent at the knee, her thigh almost parallel with the ground and her lower leg and foot pointed toward the back. Her right leg extends behind her with only a slight bend at her knee. A tube-shaped quiver falls down her back at a slight angle, and appears to be attached to the stole looped around her shoulders and back. Below the goddess’ feet, a sleek dog jumps through the air with his legs and body horizontally parallel to the ground. The dog turns its head to the left to look backward, mirroring the gaze of Diana with its mouth open and ears alertly upright. Only the fur at its neck, shoulders and tail are textured, the remainder of its body is unmarked. The two figures are supported from below by a plant-like vertical stalk with a few leaf-like projections on each side. This support rests on a stepped wood base.
