About the Item
Diana, goddess of the hunt, has served as a wellspring of inspiration for artists over centuries. However, MacDonald's interpretation truly encapsulates Diana's enduring power and beauty. The timeless allure of this imagery lies in its capacity to evoke a profound sense of wonder and admiration for the intricate and harmonious relationship between humanity and the natural world. MacDonald presents the female figure at her zenith as a synthesis of physical strength, spiritual determination, and sensual grace.
The elaborate composition exudes considerable energy and movement, with both figures captured mid-stride and connected to the base at a single point. Diana, the goddess of the hunt, is portrayed wielding a weapon, symbolizing her association with the moon. Diana's facial expression, marked by intense focus and determination, imparts psychological gravity to this piece.

Richard MacDonald
There are artists and there are masters. Richard MacDonald will go down in the history of sculpture as Picasso did painting, as an unequivocal master of the art.
Only a number of people can master craftsmanship, far fewer, the art of the human form. Figurative sculpture is a language MacDonald speaks with astounding fluency, and as with any language, MacDonald’s creative drive is formed from a need to share the universal dialect of the human figure with those who understand it; this is the unique privilege the artist affords his viewers.
MacDonald captures the beauty, romance and essence of the human spirit in motion. Influenced by the expressiveness in the figures of Renaissance master Donatello, the emotional intensity of works by 19th century French sculptor Auguste Rodin, and the power of Michelangelo’s sculptures, MacDonald’s inspirational, sensitive works are precisely of the moment, yet profoundly historic by reference. And they dance rhythmically for all to see — in the leap and grace of the dancer, the power of the athlete, the gesture and passion of lovers, the spirit rises, and MacDonald captures it.
