EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts Diana, the ancient Roman goddess of the Moon and hunting. Created by an English School artist in the 18th century, this print showcases Diana's divine beauty and power. The image is part of a private collection and was originally featured in "The Fabulous Histories of the Heathen Gods" by Andrew Tooke in 1713. Diana stands tall with her bow and arrow, symbols of her prowess as a skilled huntress. Accompanied by nymphs and hounds, she exudes grace while traversing through a moonlit landscape. Her canine companions include a regal deerhound, basset hounds, collie dog, and even an adorable puppy. As the goddess of both the Moon and hunting, Diana represents nature's wildness and untamed spirit. She embodies strength, independence, and femininity – qualities that have fascinated artists throughout history. This enchanting artwork not only captures Diana's mythical presence but also offers glimpses into ancient Roman paganism. It serves as a reminder of humanity's fascination with gods and goddesses who once held great significance in religious practices. With its intricate details showcasing various animals amidst celestial elements like full moons and outer space imagery, this print transports viewers to another time where mythology intertwined with daily life. It is truly a remarkable piece that celebrates both artistry and cultural heritage.
