Diana and Nymphs Hunting Fallow Deer. The painting shows the hunting party emerging from the forest and plunging across a stream. With their many hounds they have caught up with the deer. Diana, goddess of hunting, identifiable by the crescent in her hair, is about to spear a doe. One of her companions aims her bow at a stag; another blows a horn.
This painting depicts the goddess Diana with 'hounds' and huntresses pursues two 'stags' and two hinds across a river. Diana (with crescent in her hair) is spearing a hind; one companion aims a bow and arrow, another aims a javelin, a third blows a horn, and the fourth restrains a hound. To the right a hound cowers reluctantly.
