Diana

Karl Theodore Bitter

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The statue Diana is a full-body depiction of a nude woman. The woman has short hair and a slight smile on her face. She is standing on an oval base with her right foot slightly forward. Her left arm hangs down by her side, and her right arm is bent at the elbow with the hand resting on her right hip. She holds a bow in her left hand with the bow's ends pointing behind her. The bow is curved with bulbous ends. Her body is rendered in a naturalistic style, with defined muscles and proportions. The entire statue is made of dark gray metal.
