Description

Diana and Her Nymphs Departing for the Hunt brings the goddess forward among companions who flank her on either side. Nude bodies and red drapery give the group different accents, while hunting dogs gather near the lower right. Trees and pale sky frame the departure. The figures’ adjoining movements make preparation for the hunt feel collective rather than an action belonging to Diana alone.

Painted around 1615 in oil on canvas, the work is credited to Peter Paul Rubens and his workshop. The Cleveland Museum of Art identifies the moon and stars on one dog’s collar as marks connecting the hounds with Diana. Such details bring the mythological subject into the practical world of companions and animals, while the painting’s large figures and adjoining gestures give their departure a strongly collective character.
