Fountain of Diana - Louvre Museum
"Accompanied by her two dogs, a greyhound and a water spaniel, Diana, the goddess of hunting, reclines with her arm around a majestic stag. This sculpture once surmounted a monumental fountain on the grounds of the Château of Anet, built by Philibert de L'Orme for Diane de Poitiers, Henry II's mistress. The elongated, naked silhouette of the chaste goddess, whose beauty had always been admired, became a symbol of the French Renaissance.
Partie supérieure de la fontaine de la cour du château d'Anet (Eure-et-Loir), demeure de Diane de Poitiers, favorite d'Henri II. La sculpture a été successivement attribuée de façon erronée à Benvenuto Cellini, Jean Goujon et Germain Pilon. Mais il est difficile de juger de l'oeuvre qui a été largement complétée par le sculpteur Pierre-Nicolas Beauvallet en 1799-1800."
