Antique Bronze Bust of Diana the Huntress
A striking bronze bust depicting Diana, the Roman goddess of the hunt and moon. This piece appears to date to the late 19th or early 20th century and is beautifully modeled with a classical profile, softly sculpted shoulders, and an elaborate coiffure adorned with a crescent moon, Diana’s most recognizable symbol.
The detailing throughout the hair is especially lovely, with sculptural waves, braided elements, and gathered sections that give the piece depth and movement from every angle. The bronze has a rich, aged patina with darker oxidation and warm bronze highlights, adding to its antique character and presence.
Raised on a square pedestal base, this bust has a timeless, collected feel and would be stunning styled on a mantel, console, bookshelf, or layered among antique portraits and gilt frames.

Material: Bronze
Period: Appears late 19th to early 20th century
