EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases the remarkable Statue of Diana of Ephesus or Artemis of Ephesus. Created in 1779 by Giovanni Battista Cannetti, this print captures the essence of this ancient Roman marble copy from the 2nd century BC. The statue depicts Diana with lions on her shoulders, hunters on her breastplate, and breasts or eggs adorning her torso. Her castellated mural crown adds a regal touch to her divine presence. The image evokes a sense of awe as we witness the intricate details and symbolism embedded within this mythological figure. Diana, known as Artemis in Greek mythology, is revered for her connection to nature and hunting prowess. This engraving beautifully portrays her maternal qualities while also highlighting her association with paganism and polytheism. As we delve into the rich history behind this artwork, we are transported back to ancient Rome where religious beliefs held great significance. The statue represents not only a goddess but also serves as a testament to human creativity and devotion. Bridgeman Images has masterfully captured this piece from their private collection, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even centuries later. Through their lens, we can explore the intersection between artistry, religion, and scientific methods employed during antiquity. This print invites us to ponder upon our own understanding of divinity while marveling at the artistic mastery that has preserved these ancient treasures for generations to come.
