This sculpture was by Simon Maziere. Louis XIV commissioned at least ten marble Companions of Diana for the grounds of the Château de Marly, a hunting lodge and a getaway from the busy palace at Versailles. One of the companions of Diana commissioned for the park at Marly, paid for between 1710 and 1716 is placed in the gardens in 1714. In 1722, it was moved to the Jardin de l'Infante in the Louvre, and from there to the Hôtel du Grand Maître in Versailles. In the 19th century, it passed into private collections, at which time it was altered: the two hands, in particular, have been recarved with modern accessories.   This object is part of "Scan The World".
