Stone bust sculpture of Diana, measuring 25 × 12 × 11 cm.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Magnificent sculpture representing the bust of Diana in all her uniqueness.
The work was created following the oldest sculpting techniques, carved from rock stone of mineral origin reconstructed, with the following dimensions: 25 cm H x 12 cm L x 11 cm P and resting on a base in mineral stone, with a total weight of 2.7 kg.
Diana is an Italic goddess, mistress of the woods, protector of wild animals and women, who assured painless parts, and dispenser of sovereignty. Often this Roman goddess is associated with Artemis of Greek mythology, but according to some scholars the fusion of the two figures occurred only at a later moment.
According to legend, Diana, a young virgin skilled in hunting, irascible as much as vindictive, loved solitude and was enemy of feasts; she used to roam in isolated places. In the name of Love she had taken a vow of chastity and for this reason she was protective, only toward those who—like Hippolytus and the nymphs who promised to remain virgins—relied on her.
The lot is suitable for enriching interiors of luxury, depandances, rustic houses, or mountain homes.
A proper shipment of the object with tracking of the package is guaranteed.
No reserve!
