Artemis, known as the 'Diana of Gabii' Marble

The short tunic and sandals indicate that this is Artemis (Diana), goddess of the hunt. Artemis is fastening her cloak over her right shoulder: a gesture rarely represented. This was long thought to be an indication that this was a copy of the Artemis Brauronia, a marble statue made by Praxiteles about 330 BC for the Acropolis in Athens. In fact, the Gabii statue could be a copy of a later work, from the Hellenistic or Roman era, done in the style of Praxiteles.
