English: Artemis with a hind, better known as "Diana of Versailles" as it was long exhibited in the Versailles Castle. Marble, Roman artwork, Imperial Era (1st-2nd centuries CE). Found in Italy, maybe at Nemi (Latium).
Français : Statue d'Artémis à la biche, dite Diane de Versailles, peut-être inspirée d'un original grec du IVe siècle av. J.-C. par Léocharès. Marbre, œuvre romaine d'époque impériale. Provenance : Italie, peut-être Némi (Latium). Son nom Diane de Versailles lui vient du fait que Louis XIV fait transférer la statue dans le château de Versailles, lieu qu'elle occupera jusqu'à son retour au Louvre en 1798. |
