EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite sculpture of Diane de Poitiers, a prominent figure in French history. Created by the talented artist Jean Goujon, this masterpiece depicts Diane as Diana, the Roman goddess of hunting and wilderness. Mounted on a majestic stag made from marble and bronze, she exudes grace and power. Diane de Poitiers was not only known for her beauty but also for her exceptional skills as a huntress. In this artwork, she is portrayed with an antlered crown atop her head, symbolizing her connection to nature and wildlife. Holding a bow in one hand, she represents strength and precision. The Renaissance influence is evident in every detail of this sculpture. The intricate craftsmanship brings out the lifelike qualities of both Diane and the stag beneath her. This piece was once housed at Château d'Anet before finding its current home at Louvre Museum in Paris. As we gaze upon this stunning image captured by Mark Fiennes, we are transported back to a time when art celebrated powerful women who defied societal norms. Diane de Poitiers stands tall as Artemis herself – fierce yet elegant – reminding us of our own inner strength and ability to conquer any challenge that comes our way.
