Allegorical Scene-Sacrifice to Diana

Master IO.F.F.

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a round, bronze medallion with a detailed relief sculpture. The medallion depicts four figures, two of which are centered. One standing figure holds a long object, while the seated figure extends her arm. Another figure to the right holds a circular object, and a figure to the left holds a staff with a small figure or head. The scene is enclosed within a circular boundary, and there is a small hole near the top. The bronze material gives the piece a warm hue, and the figures are intricately detailed.
