Happy Shooting

The bronze "Young Diana" by Anna Hyatt Huntington (1876–1973) looks upward from a glass-enclosed corridor in the new "Art of the Americas" wing at the Boston Museum of FIne Arts.

 

Sculpted in 1923, the MFA website describes it as a "Large figural work of a youthful, slender, lightly draped Diana; one hand holds a bow, while the other is drawn back, having just released an arrow; quiver of arrows on her hip, and standing on a decorative base made of three twisted dolphins holding a shell."
